StoryCorps.
"StoryCorps is modeled—in spirit and in scope—after the Works Progress Administration (WPA) of the 1930s, through which oral history interviews with everyday Americans across the country were recorded. These recordings remain the single most important collection of American voices gathered to date. We hope that StoryCorps will build and expand on that work, becoming a WPA for the 21st Century." Some great stuff here.

Awesome, HW. Looks like I'll be spending some serious time digging through that site. Everyone has a story. Everyone.

Those are my troops!

Can't wait to dig into this. And to be a story collector would be way cool.

Hey, if you come across any that are especially cool or funny or moving or whatever, make sure to post 'em here.
