I sent a tip in to bOINGbOING a few days back about a website with audio clips from amusement rides at Holyoke's own [defunct] Mountain Park. It was nice that they picked it up and featured it, and, to add to that, my beloved WFMU has included it in an article on their blog. I tried to trace the causality back to me, but reached a dead end with a putative source that didn't have a link anywhere I could find it -- but hey, it can't be be just a coincidence! What is a coincidence is that the WFMU guy has actually been to the ruins of Mountain Park, back in the 90s (when there was still something to see).

I blogged it in January 2006 originally, in case some of this sounds vaguely familiar to you. A blog called It's Randomonium! is the only one who seems to have picked it up from bOINGbOING directly, according to their trackbacks. (And my pal [livejournal.com profile] geckoman mentioned it too!)
