The "Wake Up Call" Question.....Takes us to Boston.....

[radio]

IN 1972, there were two people holding a very strange and unique job in Boston. The job has never been duplicated that we know-of. What was the job? We're in week number 4 of the question!

Clue given 10/31- "round and round, back and forth"
Clue given 11/3- "Things are looking up!"
clue given 11/7/- "Not U.F.O. related, but maybe I.F.O. related"
Clue given 11/16- "The answer will be crystal clear if you put all the clues together!"
NEW CLUE ON NOV 30TH: "The title of a "Roxette Song" will help you with the answer!

Some guesses included: checking manhole covers (early guess) removing sneakers from wires and lights, seashell crusher, kite flyers testing wind for the Boston Marathon.

Prize: Burger of the Week from Ionia's Lamplight Grill, a 2-item Large Pizza from Northside Party Store and Deli, a 202 piece first-aid kit from the Medical Reserve Corps of Montcalm and Ionia County, and $14.30 in honor of our AM frequency.

Open to local forum members in the USA, but please enter by sending e-mail to: morning@i1430.com which will be read weekdays 6-9AM EST.
If this grows in online interest, we'll try open it up to non-local members, too and somehow work a prize package for you!
