Dan Clark discusses changes afoot in Downtown Muscatine. How might the Greater Downtown Muscatine Association be reorganized? Who speaks for our historic downtown anyway? Dan talks about Downtown as his reason for bringing a trolley bus to town, and a caller asks why Muscatine can't be as attractive a "destination" as Galena.

Dan Clark and Jeff Shay discuss Muscatine area involvement in the Civil War. Dan reads "Patriotic Patriarchs," William D. Randall's account of the 37th Iowa regiment known as "the Greybeards." Jeff tells more and describes the Civil War book he is writing.
