| Ivan finishes #11. Covaliu takes the gold, poz the silver. Amazing athletes, notice that Montana seems to be coming back, taking the bronze. | |

| Didn't he fence for the University of Southern North Dakota in Hoople?
(free rep for first person to identify that reference--with the call letters of the radio station!!)

| Some stations west of the Mississippi have "W" as the start of their call letters. There's a station in Philadelphia that starts with a "K". Can't recall the name. It's a right-wing hatemongering station.

KD and Edew are right...it should be a "K" station, being west of the Mississippi. However, it is a fictional radio station, broadcast from a barnloft, with incessant barking dogs in the background....hence the "WOOF" call letters.
Peter Schickele is a musical and comedic genius.

They were rather so in the mid-80s when I lived in Philly. Couldn't listen to more than 15 minutes before I changed the station. WHYY was better on the temperment.

WHYY was better on the temperament. | Nope. You're thinking of some other station. I've been listening to it off and on since I was a teenager in the 60s. Though it began in 1921 in Chicago as KYW (which would explain the call sign) and switched to WRCV for a while, it's been an all-news AM station (with very short news bits, traffic and weather, etc.) (and an old-fashioned ticker-tape sound in the background) since 1965 when they switched from call letters WRCV, and was never right-wing; it was paired with KYW-TV and switched from NBC to CBS when the TV station did the same.
Though I agree it's hard to listen to it for more than 15 minutes, because it tends to repeat itself.

| Serious thread drift here; I'll hijack it back briefly to note that the FIE site has some nice videos of Padova bouts--final between Covaliu and Pozdniakov, semis and team final.
Drift away....
