While writing my perl Sansa mp3 player podcast sync program, I came across the issue that the mp3 audio for the CrankyGeeks podcast is without id3 tag information. This royally messes up my list. As a short irony, I noticed that the last KFI Tech Guy with Leo Laporte was without a few tags, causing it to fall into the <unknown> category on the player.

Leo has enough stuff derived from his name, so I wrote the &johncdvorak subroutine
