The part of the article that leaves me shaking my head at the most
QuoteAssuming the Skyway continues to run deficits of about $4 million a year, that would be an additional $100 million of taxpayers' money gone away.
.....
And if the system was shut down now, the federal government — which funded the project — would demand $70 million to $80 million back.

The system has been paid for, Blaylock said, but the federal government still has a right to demand its money back.

Sure, what time and how do you record?

I usually record early Saturday mornings--my voice is more resonant then. But so much of it depends on my schedule and what's going on. Probably what's best is for you to record your parts independently and I'll mix them together.
