      Dave was responsible for my sleep deprivation from the age of 12 until he moved to the 11:30 spot at CBS.
      I wasn't even in my teens but I would stay up until 1:30 am to watch every last minunte of that show. And God forbid Costas had someone interesting on - that was another 30 minutes of sleep lost.

      I agree Dave was great and I watched the show pretty religiously in the 80s and 90s when I was still a young man. Also helps that I'm from Indianapolis and now live in the house one block over for more Dave grew up, the neighborhood is still cool!
