WITF CONGRATULATES...
Central PA’s own Geoffrey P. Groff names new PBS series Click and Clack's As The Wrench Turns

Geoffrey P. Groff has listened to National Public Radio’s “Car Talk” for 15 years, but he never dreamed he would be responsible for naming PBS’s cartoon version of the program. PBS recently held a national contest inviting the public to submit their ideas for names for PBS’s new program. Groff’s wife encouraged him to enter his idea in to the naming contest, and it was selected out of 6,000 submissions. Groff will be a cartoon figure in one of the episodes of the series and will now go down in PBS history. WITF's Faith Camp talked to Mr. Groff about the contest.
