Subject:sounds like a project!
From:Brian Cochran

There's a project!  Somebody needs to convert  this .ram file to a
wav/mov/mp3 format and put it on the vanagon.com site, so we can listen to
it when needing to feel good about our vanagons.  I have mood shifts about
my westy, depending on how it's running.  If I could listen to that segment
after, say some leak is newly discovered, maybe I'll feel I'm a part of
something bigger than just owning some van.  Otherwise, I'll spend the week
ranting on how I have to get rid of it.  I felt pretty good about my van
when listening to that report!

That's why people like RealPlayer files. They are designed to make it
difficult for people to download the actual file.
You will note if you download the file, you will end up with a 1K file,
which is only a *link* to the location of the actual file.
(eg when NPR removes the file, your link will no longer work.)

The only way I've been able to find a way to save these is to use a
recording tool to record the audio as it is playing.
Then save the file from there.

For example, I used a shareware program called "Total Recorded" to
record the segment and save it as a .wav file.
