    It was announced on Friday that next week's installment (March 12) of "Lost and Found Sound," a year-long exploration of a century's worth of audio archives on National Public Radio's *All Things Considered*, will be about New York City dialects, using Wm. Labov's 40 years of tape recordings.

    The program usually airs between 4:30 and 5:00 EST (repeated 6:30-7:00); for listeners not within range of a public radio station, many of the affiliates offer live sound streaming from their websites. You can get a list of them at < http://www.npr.org >; I don't suppose there's any reason this wouldn't work outside the US.
