I've actually asked a neighbor to turn down NPR. In this case, her radio was up against her ceiling (our floor), and she had it turned up so that she could hear it on the other side of the house. (Plus I was home sick, and Carl Kasell isn't so soothing that he will lull me to sleep.)

But yeah, I agree. And now I have an image of the two of you rolling down the highway in a pimped-out Volvo, "All Things Considered" with bass boost thumping from the speakers...
