In my posting that started this topic, I quoted the WHFS ID as something
like "...you're listening to the sensual world on..."  Somebody else
replied that this was fairly accurate.  This would, of course, imply
that the ID dates to late '89 or early '90.  Somebody else posted that
WHFS *does* have an HoL-era ID as well, though I've never heard it.

I forgot about that, so thanks for reminding me.  Well, I guess I
was wrong.  But now I'm curious about yet another thing.  Is the
KROQ Los Angeles ID current?  (I.e. does it refer to _The Sensual
World_?)  Because if it is I'll REALLY be annoyed.  This time around
KITS started playing stuff from that album way before KROQ, and
continued playing it more often.
