Stress? STRESS? (I don't get stress, I give it.) The comment about the emotional health of radio types reminds me of a few incidents..like the newsman who ran amok with an axe in the CKEY newsroom one afternoon, the afternoon personality who was a wild man on the air and had a complete breakdown, the evening guy who sat in the record library and played "Rhinestone Cowboy" 22 times in succession, the newsman who started the 6pm newscast on Christmas Day totally blotto and never finished it (names available on private request, except for Rhinestone Boy whose name I can't remember). Oh, and a certain program director I worked for (when he showed up, that is).
