https://www.radioworld.com/columns-and-views/roots-of-radio/mary-texanna-loomis-radio-pioneer  This story about Mary Texanna Loomis is fascinating enough, but also about her cousin's wireless pioneering experiments. Eh??? (Thank you Boomer!!!)

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.

Hey Thadood,

Another fascinating woman was Eunice Randall of 1XE/WGI Medford , MA .

A GREAT story about this 1920's pioneer.
