   I commented on another site that I might have to figure out which
   member of NARN's Opening Act has the best attendance record.
   I spun through my Pogo recordings back to September 1 so far, which
   was the second Saturday of the State Fair. As I write this, I'm
   listening to the Final Word covering the launch of the [Look] True
   North site that has been a great success. I was at the Fair that day,
   watching it live, which has me wishing for the return of Global
   Warming.
   The past 26 weeks contain excused absences for Thanksgiving and
   Christmas, so 24 is a perfect score which no host managed to receive.
   There was a tie for 23, shared by Mitch Berg, Michael Brodkorb, and
   also David Strom on his show.
   But who took the most of those "well deserved" days off among the
   Opening Act? Chad the Elder did 15 of 24 shows. Brian (is he still
   "St. Paul"?) Ward appeared 18 times, but Powerline's John Hinderaker
   made it to the studio 20 weeks, besting the Fraters.
   I'll extend this to a rolling full year later.
