I don't think the SDLF will be touched, just the HD feed.  I won't post the email address I got with the email, if you want more info, click here: http://www.weather.com/interact/contactus/affiliatesnewspapers.html?from=contactus#

As much as I hate to be less informed than an admin from another forum (ans as little sense as it makes :P ), I'm sure glad we have you around here.  :D :P

Yes!  We're only months away from seeing the HD LF in true HD, and [at least] I'm only months away from not having to switch to the SD channel to get an actual local forecast!  :D :dance:

Nobody is above the law except for Ronald McDonald, Barney, and maybe, just maybe, Brad Pitt.
