^ No, not to my knowledge, but feel free to start one here in the ATL Coffee House if you want to.

Anyways, while I was in Atlanta over my Spring Break from GSU (Georgia Southern), I discovered a new oldies station in the metro area, 106.7 "True Oldies". I've been waiting a long time for a new one to appear. I hope it lasts longer than some of the other previous attempts aty oldies stations that havde been tried here.

On a side note, I was a little amazed, but Statesboro has, IMO, a lot better choice of radio stations than the Atlanta area, especially since we pick up some of Savannah's radio stations, as well as a few from SC.

We have now officially seen it all on Atlanta's  expressways.

A pair of llamas snarled traffic on I-285 early Friday afternoon  for about 30 minutes , authorities said.

Their owner was traveling through Metro Atlanta from Alabama when the gate on the trailer came undone, east of the I-75 junction in north Fulton.

Mentioned this as part of a comment on the new retail outlet at ViewPoint in Midtown, but Atlanta now has 1200 sq.miles of high-speed wireless internet coverage. Clear (or Clearwire) is a WiMAX provider; WiMAX allows DSL/cable equivalent speeds wirelessly, so you can roam from your home to the office, to a client, to a coffee shop to Piedmont Park with the same connectivity. This should add to the attractiveness of the metro for business development.

Well, that's certainly good news. I know I'll certainly be making use of it, and as you mentioned, I'm sure businesses certainly like it, too.
