Really? I like Kim. The way she presents the weather shows that she really enjoys what she's doing.

Nope, it was September 12. July was when NBC reached an agreement to buy TWC, but the purchase didn't occur until two months later.

How will you get the life saving information you will need during a storm?”Because the FCC thinks HD is more important then having a simple, affordable setup. In my honest opinion, I think we can live without HD. If we lived through television in the 1990's before HD, then we can today. Many people can't afford to pay big bucks on digital cable because all of the channels were removed from basic cable/over the air TV.

Tell me, why are they doing this DTV switch again? To me it sounds like a big scam to stimulate the economy. I mean, I am all for stimulating the economy, but putting peoples lives in danger? How low can the idiots in Washington go?

A person who claims to have subscribed to me on Youtube added me on Skype, and I asked them if I knew them, and their reply was no.Yeah, I don't recommend giving that kind of information out on popular sites like YouTube, or pretty much anywhere else publicly.

« on: June 09, 2009, 06:19:13 AM »If they, from what you described, produce only two colors. I wonder why they still have the green light.The bottom lights are flashing yellow lights, they're not green. It's hard to see them unless you're right in front of it because it has that grid on top of the lens. The middle lights are also yellow but they are bigger, and don't flash.
The fire signals in Moline, the few I have seen anyway, are composed of a red lens and a white reflector. They only activate when signaled by the fire department.

Here is what the emergency signals look like here. These are only installed near fire stations that are located off a major road, like where this one was taken (PA 132/Street Road). These lights just flash yellow when there's no activity. When these turn red, there's also white lights that flicker on top of the lens (these are also seen in areas where there are a lot of traffic lights close together, like on Rockhill Drive at the US 1 ramps).

We had an F2 tornado back in 1998. Didn't get much other than a few blown off roof shingles and a power outage. I would of seen it and took pictures if it didn't happen in the middle of the night...

Trammell is signed with a record company? I thought he's an independent artist.
