one80 in westport seems to have cultivated something, although the bongos can get a little annoying after awhile... but it must be hard since there really has never been much of a DJ culture in KC.

^yes, things are getting tense. If you would like to place bets, I suggest you do so now. i hope there's more than "watching" going on! is there any plan to be more forceful? honestly, most people barely read the paper, let alone understand the "ozone alert" flashing on the bus ...
