my favorite radio lab...

...well i love all radiolab but i think i really enjoy the first five minutes of NPR's Radiolab season 2, episode 2 the most (i'm starting the series from the beginning - it never gets old). the episode is all about the way we speak and the music we make. the episode is beautiful.  while in scandinavia i was informed that the swedish sing a bit as they speak... i guess so do english speaking americas and a couple of britons.
