Re: Fwd: WNEW changes again...

I was in NYC this morning.  I had Z-100 on, but really wan't listening.  There 
was a produced promo coming out of a stop set that had the tag line, "Z-100... 
Music Women Love".  I wish I heard the whole thing.  It may have just been an 
inside joke by Elvis, the morning guy.
