This morning (Tues 6/8), in Deb Lawlor's live interview with 
Bob Raleigh, Wednesday at 00:00 hours begins Bob Raleigh's 
final show.  Roll Tape.  Call and say goodbye.

Bob noted that he's retiring from radio  - a rare occurance
these days and despite the rumours, he's leaving of his 
own free will.
