[BC] Another public station bites the dust

[Steve]

Having played the classical formats for more than 20 minutes I can tell you 
that executed correctly and playing the right music at the right time is 
essential. You're correct. I'm happy to say we played it right when I was 
P.D. and my M.D. took care of touching things up we pulled the biggest 
numbers WRR ever had in its 50 years. (If I may brag for a moment). Now, as 
for my home town and D.C. it's like shooting fish in a barrel. You can put a 
carrier on and play Fur Elise 24 hours a day and become 4th in the market. 
They are just those kinds of markets. There are quite a number of snobs to 
add to those who like it anyway ergo the big numbers. Other markets, like 
Dallas, you have to work for your ratings. I know, SF is my home town. To a 
certain degree Seattle has that same sort of air as does Boston.
