LOL!! During my 20 year tenure at WFIF, I had to do some night work every 
once in a awhile. On those occasions, every now and then, the phone would ring. I 
usually tried to ask them if they even knew which station they were calling. 
(Bonus points: When I answered the phone, I ALWAYS said "Good --- WFIF!" with 
the --- being "Morning", "Afternoon", or "Eveing" as needed.) 

They never knew the answer. DUH! So I would just tel themm "We're off the air 
for the night."

They were utterly clueless.
