I'm not really sure how to use prepend. I thought it was a simple matter of
s= prepend(s,other_source), but since it works on meta, it appears to need
a function to determine which meta to work on.

Am I mistaken in believing that this helper function runs continuously,
responding to specific metadata as it pops-into the stream? If so, it seems
the function could be extended to provide intros for all manner of format
changes... on the fly.  That would be desirable. Adding hourly news, with a
prepended intro would be trivial. Unless I am mistaken.
