 * Keep I see hundreds of mentions in reliable sources. Though many are trivial, some are certainly not.  For example, this is 285 words about Raines including discussion of his professional credentials, this which discusses several weather broadcasters, saying "KABC's Dallas Raines by far is the best. Always cheerful with a hopeful attitude", this which includes the lines, "On television, the weatherman is upstaging the anchor man. Dallas Raines has replaced Fabio as a cult figure. (And has almost as much hair.) People try desperately to memorize that five-day forecast they flash across the screen for three seconds", and this, which says " TV weatherman Dallas Raines demonstrated on Thursday that he's a lot more than just a weather-hunk meteorologist with a perpetual tan. The KABC (Channel 7) personality is also a college instructor at California State University, Northridge, and by all accounts, a pretty effective one.Lecturing to a standing-room-only audience of 40 undergraduates, Raines, 43, discoursed on atmospheric pressure, El Nino and south swells.", continuing for total of 436 words.
