ArchivesStone WallsBy Mike Arnold on Wednesday, April 7, 2004.It's been said that "to know New England well, one must know its stone walls". At one time there were more than 240,000 miles of stone walls in New England, used to divide property, hold in farm animals and support plant life. Today, our guest says, there's a lot we can learn from these stone structures, including the natural, cultural and human history of New England life. Mike's guest is Robert Thorson, professor of geology and geophysics at the University of Connecticut and author of Stone by Stone: The Magnificent History in New England's Stone Walls. listen:
 Marilyn's ManBy John Walters on Wednesday, April 7, 2004.Though she died over 40 years ago, the mystique surrounding the life of Marilyn Monroe only seems to increase with time. Along the way, there have been many disputed rumors; from how she got her name, to how she came to die. Her first husband, Jim Dougherty, aims to set the record straight in the film, Marilyn?s Man. He teamed up with Schani Krug and Erik Baron to create a documentary about the "sweet, generous and religious" Norma Jean that he married in 1942. Marilyn?s Man will be shown at the New York International Independent Film Festival in New York later this month and at the Cannes Film Festival in May. We talk to Schani and Erik about the film and Jim?s everlasting love for his first bride. All three men live in the Seacoast area. listen:
