Apparently, I've reached the post count of "leet". 
Guess that's the way SMF shows the post count of 1337.

They hardly changed ANYTHING on the August 15th, 2005 relaunch. They only changed the logo, the XL and IS, LF intros, :00 bumpers, and a few more things, but all the shows graphics and music remained the same. 
They all eventually changed, though (obviously).

I get speeds around 8MB with Cox Cable internet, which is pretty fast. You can get it for only $9.95 a month, too.

TWC and your Cable Company / Re: cox communications still with weather star xl
« on: August 15, 2007, 01:26:34 PM »I think Cox may be available for me in the Santa Cruz area. Wonder if it has another STAR? Other than that, it's Comcast or Dish.Cox most likely has the IS, because we got upgraded to the IS with Cox right when it came out. That may not be the same with all Cox headends, though.We don't have many cable choices out here like everyone else does.

« on: August 15, 2007, 01:16:16 PM »Wow, he's really stregthened quite a bit since the last advisory. Winds are up about 20mph or so, and the pressure has fallen below 1000 millibars. :ph34r:
Yep. If you look at the satellite picture of Dean, you'll see it's getting it's act together pretty well.
It's also a fairly small circulation, much like how Flossie is.
