When man and machine collide, you get "Radio Rich" Dalton of KHITS-96! Rich is wired to recall obscure facts, dates, and words, as well as entertain the St. Louis rock community.

Whatever the case, "Radio Rich" Dalton has been, and will remain, a permanent fixture in the rock and roll world! Rich punches in each day 10AM and leads the K-HITS workforce through the midday!

You might guess that "cognizance" and "cognition" are members of the "cognoscere" clan. Do you also recognize a family resemblance in "recognize"? Can you see through the disguise of "incognito"?
