A fine piece of work.

I'd like to take this moment to say that NPR's Fred Child has just gained about 10,000 points in my book. He is the host of a national daily classical music show called Performance Today that I listen to in the mornings at work. I emailed the show's general address yesterday to ask about a piece they played that had been recorded in Portland. Not only did Mr. Child respond personally within two hours, but he actually took time to research several other websites that had information relevant to my question.

I don't know if he has a fan club yet, but I may start one.
