Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Aaah yes, and the funny thing is that the 101 is called different things, depending on which section you're talking about - it is both the Hollywood Freeway and the Ventura Freeway, in different areas. IIRC, the Hollywood Freeway consists of parts of both the 101 and the 170 (it's been 14 years since I lived in LA, and even longer since I drove there).
We used to call the Pacific Coast Highway simply PCH.
KNX 1070 comes in well at night here - as well as across large swathes of the West in general. Occasionally I listen, and find the traffic reports nostalgic. There is something about hearing Denise Fondo name the different freeways that really makes me nostalgic for Southern California. A lot of good things happened to me in my 20's and 30's in LA. Those experiences when young stick with you for a lifetime. I thought it was neat during my recent 4 1/2 month campervan trip through CA, AZ, NM, CO, UT and NV, that I could listen to KNX at night wherever I was.
I left there in 1982 for the Air Force. Stationed in Sacramento twice for a year each after that, but ended up on the east coast. No more family ties to go back for.
