    Its a non profit thing.Lerman did this a long time ago The people that run it look for anyone willing to tell a story . Sometimes they look for homeless people in NYC subways to take part in it. There is no money , no fame no nothing .

    To Anonymous whomever you may be…………Why the negativity? Being on NPR is “something.” Is 2005 that long ago? I just cannot understand why so many posters ding or trash “somethings.” Being on NPR gives that person at least a moment or moments of fame. Don had a repeat of that. Good for you, Don.

    The Npr people were at the 2005 Canoli contest and asked all the eaters if they who would like to be interviewed at Grand central Station . I guess i was the only taker among the eaters that day I assure you that I was not homeless in the subway thou I often were a sign saying i will work for food. They told me it was their best interview ever!
