ok, some months back I wrote about the program I wrote to perform the 
office of being a robot radio station in my windows desktop PC. well, I 
got it done and posted the program FOR WINDOWS on this list, and shut up.

Then I got interested in the Raspberry Pi, which has adopted python as 
it's language of preference. And I soon not to thinking that this little 
wonder with a st of amplified speakers and a 16Gb SD card in an old 
cabinet would be hell on small dogs as a old time radio recreation.

So now i am starting to meddle with what already works, and convert it 
to Raspbian Linux for installation in a Raspberry Pi. there is a nice 
command line program called mpg123 that plays mp3 files easy pasy, but 
mayhaps someone knows of another way that is a touch simpler to invoke 
from inside a python script? natch, I could do it from an sh script.. 
but that's not python, is it?

Anyone who wants to stick an oar in this water, wade in to the thread.
