Flatlander or no flatlander, Eye on the Sky is tough to follow first
thing in the morn if you miss a beat. Impossible? Hardly. Do I know
where Routes 4 and 2 are? Yes. Does VPR ever give much thought to
mountain forecasts (especially with regard to snowfall)? No. I much
prefer Roger Hill's morning forecast on 96.1 WDEV, although it tends
to go on for a bit longer.

As an aside, why is the guy living in Cambridge MA accusing others on
the list of being flatlanders? Just curious.
