The beauty of the old crystal radio is that it needed no external power...

Y'know, you're right there. I had forgotten after all these years so I did
a little Googling, too, and noted that all you needed for power was a proper
length of antenna wire-- no battery. Like magic! Like picking up Casey
Kasem on your braces.

You got that? All I could get was a clear channel country music/religious
station in the Midwest. Every time the orthodontist did an adjustment, it
came in louder and clearer. Bummer.


What brand of toothpaste were you using? That made a difference. Don't you
remember Bucky Beaver? He was able to bring in Europe on his uppers.

Good old Bucky would exhort consumers to "Brusha, brusha, brusha. Brusha with
Ipana"
All this non-numismatic chitchat must be frustrating Reid the Net Cop to no end!
