	8:02pm Bethany Ryker: Greetings all, I have a task for anyone interested....
	8:06pm foofs: We can't rescue 100 million of you, but we'll do what we can!
	8:06pm redkayak: Hello!
	8:06pm redkayak: Task?
	8:09pm Parq: Mayhap "frantic".
	8:14pm Listener Robert: So they really compose with directions like that? What happened to good ol' allegrissimo?
	8:16pm Bethany Ryker: Prestissimo! I posted a link to a PDF of the score, you can check that out, Robert!
	8:17pm Listener Robert: This past Sun. AM, the guy on NewtRadio was playing a Bernstein concert-for-young-people in which he gave his opinion that what people meant by "classical" was better captured as "exact" composition. When did they get THAT exact?
	8:17pm redkayak: ....like trying to follow a butterfly in flight across a meadow
	8:17pm redkayak: (the word for, lol....)
	8:18pm Wrecktum: hai
	8:18pm Bob Farquat: hey
	8:19pm Listener Robert: Hmm...December 1930. Yeah, that was when Technocracy was new & popular, as I found out from following a link I think from a WFMU page recently.
	8:20pm JakeGould: So what is the task again?
	8:20pm coelacanth∅: greetings Bethany
	8:21pm Listener Robert: No, wait, I think it was a link from a Looney Tune that referenced Technocracy.
	8:25pm Listener Robert: Now your kid gets sued for sexual harassment.
	8:27pm redkayak: Yes. Kids still celebrate Valentine's Day in grade school.....at least around here
	8:43pm Bethany Ryker: Hi everyone who has just joined the program! Glad you are out there. If you want a throwback analog VALENTINE I got one for you. Send an email to me with your mailing address, and a custom WFMU actual paper message will reach you. bethany (at) wfmu (dot) org
	8:55pm JakeGould: An actual paper message? You mean an… “Alternative Fax?” bows bows dodges thrown tomatoes bows bows
	8:56pm Bethany Ryker: Actual Paper. Edges slightly yellowed. Actual stamps. Pen. Maybe even stickers. Can't do candy, unfortunately.
	8:57pm mahall: It shouldn't be weird to me that I can hear recordings of Prokofiev himself playing his music, but it is...I mean, when I play Lt Kije Suite around Xmas I don't actually think of the guy going into recording studios. But obviously....
	8:58pm Just Tuned in: Always Love the selections Bethany. I use your archives to increase my knowledge of orchestrated music. I am tired of the same old overplayed A sides. I look at times for a more eccentric fare.
	8:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, folks. Look what Ranjit has this year for Instrument A Day. www.moonmilk.com
	9:01pm coelacanth∅: Thank you Bethany Have a great week!
	9:01pm Listening Out There: Valentine's is cool!
	9:02pm Listener Robert: Yay! Maybe I'll send you one, Ms, Ryker.
	9:05pm Bethany Ryker: Please do, if you wish :) Bethany/ A440 WFMU PO Box 2011 Jersey City, NJ 07303
	2:30am bunyan: Thank you for the Debussy movement: I believe I've heard you playing this in the background a number of times and have been wanting to know what it is!
