Cool. I was at one point fascinated by radio, and actually have this on CD. I loved learning about this one in particular. It was like the Blair Witch of it's time, and some of the stories about it's impact are hilarious. I liked one about how farmers started shooting at water towers, thinking they were spacecrafts. A translated and localized version was played in Haiti caused panic also, but when they found out it was a fake, they got so upset that they burned down the radio station! Sadly, I think people were killed in the fire.
I actually just saw Citizen Kane. It was pretty good, a great American tragedy.
By the way, check this out if you are a fan of Orson Welles:
