weird noise on braking.

[Daniel Neuman <dneuman@stars.sfsu.edu>]

Hello All,
        Lately I have been noticing a weird scraping noise coming from 
my drivers side rear wheel.  When applying the brakes going slow, as in 
stopping for a traffic light, I hear a scrape-scrape-scrape-scrape noise.
Before you all say pull off the wheel and look. I am going to do that but
I was looking for pointers as to what to look for.
        
                Thanks,
                        Daniel 69 2000
