Yes, thanks. I had not noticed first response.
Pretty good selections, Paul Miles may be a stretch

If they put all the deserving candidates in at the same time, who would be left for the next year??

Not quite... :-)

Got an old-timer I'd like to see in there... since it is posthumous though, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get the info together. And I can only find one reference on Jeff's WV radio history site.

Damn.

Inductee Janet Evans died over a decade ago of cancer. She was XCC/BTH manager thru the boom times. Many couldn't stand her. She was most noted in Williamson for selling the "paper boy" commercials and then taking him to court for not paying on time! And her "flights of fantasy that would end in a rage when told what it would cost.. Just the exact opposite of Havit.

OK... let's get this started. Anyone got any information on the creation/history of WPDX in Clarksburg?
