When people say TMI, they generally mean, “too much information!” But when I hear that phrase I flash back to March 1979. I remember vividly hearing the fear in a woman's voice on the phone, asking if I thought she should evacuate the area and take her baby to safety. We'd received no orders to evacuate but how could I, a young DJ, tell her to just sit tight if she was so panicked?
