: 95 WIIL ROCK Abandons Format
: Sometimes even the loud and obnoxious can get filled with the Christmas spirit. In the event called �Anything for the Kids�, 95 WIIL ROCK (WIIL-FM) plans to turn over their airwaves this Thursday to it�s caring and giving listeners in an attempt to raise money for �A Safe Place For Help�, a Lake County based organization, dedicated to giving support to the children of domestic violence. The money will help buy Christmas presents for children served by the organization.

Cool. This is always a winner with the listeners, Bob & Brian have been doing it for years at Lazer. It usually gets press too.

: Program Director John Perry explains, �Starting Thursday at 6am with The Tom and Lisa Morning Show, we are accepting requests to be played on the air. Requests will cost $20 per song for normal format songs. For songs that are not in format or are a bit crazy will cost $30 to $50 dollars. Songs that are outrageous will cost $60 to $100 and more. Cash or Credit Card donations will be accepted at our studio's in Pleasant Prairie, WI or over the phone through the studio lines at 800.223.9510.�

This part is a little confusing. Who decides what is "outrageous", "not in format", "crazy" and "normal"
