                | What, Now WLIR's Gone?
 In January, Long Island alt-rock mainstay WLIR (sometimes WDRE) went off the air, replaced by Spanish-language radio. Along with WNEW, which underwent a long-slow death of its own, these may be my most-listened-to radio stations ever. Still around is KROC, of course, and WBAB (just up on Sunrise Highway); new stations Island 94.3 and Q104 (where much of the WNEW crew went); New Haven's WPLR (which always came in great in Stony Brook) and the "all Bob station" WFUV from Fordham. I found a good tribute to WLIR at 2Walls Webzine.
