It was because of the first Iraq war.  Bob was there in case anything broke, 
as were most of the morning hosts in the building.  I only knew him for the 
short time he worked at 420 Western Ave, but he was a kind, decent man...and 
one who is still missed.  He had a lot of friends, judging by the turnout at 
the services.
