Caller: "There is a permanent exhibit attached to our Natural History Museum..."

It's on global warming, of course. And it features a clip of a scientist explaining this fact as an emergency and appealing to us to take action in a hurry. If we don't stop it now we're going to turn into the planet Mercury...

And of course Prager butts in to get his little joke inserted, to hear himself make noise, to take the thought away from the caller.

The caller was talking as fast as he could to try to get the rest of his story in. But evidently Prager thought he had said quite as much as he deserved, and cut him off. Frankly I don't think the show was improved by that, Prager. I wanted to hear the rest of what he had to say. Probably something about how proud of her exhibit the curator of the museum was, something like that. Maybe he was going to tell us how he started a movement to get the damn thing out of there and after three months of active campaigning he had succeeded? That would have been worth hearing.

There was time. It was 2:39 and they didn't go to break till 2:42. It wasn't as if he had been hemming and hawing, looking for the right word, taking too long. They shoulda let him speak.
