Listener comments!
	9:13am dc pat: hey BobW. For those in the Baltimore area anytime soon, the wooden machine on the FMU homepage is probably from the Visionary Arts Museum there. GREATEST museum in the world. There are about a hundred of those little machines on display.
	9:30am Parq: Bananas Eat Girl = great label name
	9:30am dc pat: man, where's everyone? Getting over Easter hangovers?
	9:32am dc pat: oh, hey Parq
	9:43am cheripi: I just loooove carsick cars, can't believe they're in the fma, yeah!
	9:49am Cecile: Okay, "diffiult, controversial" Erykah Badu video. Discuss. Personally, if there hadn't been that exposition at the beginning, it would have been way more powerful.
	9:49am cecile: good song, though.
	9:56am Cecile: I'm grumpy. Tom Sawyer deal is one of the very few records on this station that I would say that I could do better than that. But I know it's 'FMU and in two minutes, something will come on that will make me happy.
	9:58am bobw: i agree - i'd like to hear kid koala or rob swift work it.
	9:59am Cecile: Get out of my head! That would be amazing. the gauntlet is thrown.
	10:19am dc pat: mmmm, veggie chicken...
	10:20am marty: what about Mee Noodle on 1st @ 12th....... i miss that place
	10:24am bobw: i LOVED mee noodle! but i'm pretty sure that there are a few other mee noodles still in operation. now i gotta get me some good chinese! oh, there's a joint on 6th st. by 1st ave. that serves veggie vietnamese, and they have a killer veggie pho!
	10:29am Parq: Hi, 'Cile, and a belated howdy back atcha to Pat. It's hell time at my office, but I'll still be lurking.
	10:29am dc pat: ah phuck! That's something I can't find in the DC area--phaux pho. I've never even tasted pho because I went veggie before I knew about it.
	10:31am dc pat: I tried to make faux pho once but people, I'll tell you, don't try to make a recipe when you don't even know how it's suppose to taste...
	10:32am cheripi: Thanks BW, I needed to hear this Cocteau Twins song today, you really made my day.
	10:32am bobw: the veggie vietnamese joint is called LAN CAFE. it's on "indian row" on 6th street. there's also a few new joints in the EV that feature non-meat vietnamese sandwiches - veggie and fish.
	10:33am Mike L: Love the Cocteau Twins!
	10:34am Cecile: wow, good old crazy Siouxsie damaged Cocteaus
	10:35am dc pat: Miss Saigon in Georgetown has good fake duck and really great lightly cooked veggies. NOTEKILLERS!!
	10:40am Carmichael: Good morning Bob & ham-hungover people. A new veggie Indian place just opened down the street from work. I shall check it out and report back.
	10:42am north guinea hills: Definitely a fan of most very be careful stuff.
	10:50am Cecile: That's cool, Carm. We had hard-boiled egg curry last night.
	10:52am Carmichael: Wow, that actually sounds pretty good, even though I'm not an egg fan. We took an in-your-face approach to holiday tradition by BBQing babybacks and chateaubriand.
	10:58am Cecile: My husband likes eggs, but not hard-boiled ones, and he thought it was pretty all right. I'll have to tweak some more.
	10:58am GenericPlacebo: EYE feel much better about it being Munda now (the day slavery begins)—thankUveryMuch
	11:27am Cecile: where is a good place to start with Boards of Canada?
	11:29am GenericPlacebo: first album only!!! the others were all remixes cept 4 twoism maybe if you have turntables they are pretty good backwardss too
	11:33am Carmichael: I first heard some cuts from "Music Has the Right to Children" quite a long time ago. I thought the whole album was great, but I haven't paid much attention since.
	11:46am MCSirch: DAMN! Missed Very Be Careful! Play it again. Again 'n again!
	11:51am genericPlacebo: 2 bad so many bands do that, first album perfect, tehn watever its a classic problem, fame and $$$$
	11:53am Cecile: Yes, because Boards of Canada are so huge. :/
	11:59am Duke of Earl Grey: I thought their 2nd album "Geogaddi" was great even if not quite as amazing as "Music Has the Right...." And actually, BoC were pretty huge (for electronic music), weren't they?
	10:58pm will: I think I love the band harangue. I hear glam, I hear fractured folk, I hear artrock, I hear the Ponys and I've never even heard the Ponys! Fleet Foxes should write stuff so challenging.
