O Click, O Clack!

Tom and Ray Magliozzi, better known as Click and Clack, the irrepressible hosts of NPR's "Car Talk," are packing up their toolbox this fall. They've recorded in the studio next door to us for years.

Tom Ashbrook writes the Car Talk guys a plea and lament...

O Click, O Clack!
You must not go.
We need your laugh.
We need it so.
We need your cackle, need your heart,
need your automotive part.
You've diagnosed our carburetors,
marriages and cosmic matters.
Won't you stay and listen to
the sound our hearts now make for you?
O Click, O Clack, don't go!

-Tom Ashbrook
