I highly doubt anyone will be moving from their shifts. Just take A&B, Evening Edition, and slap on the Weather Center graphics. That's all I see happening in this change.

« on: February 18, 2009, 06:02:56 PM »Sorry, I refuse to use poison in my home. A LITTLE Mercury is more than the amount that should be, which is NONE.Using that logic, I guess schools and offices are dangerous places to be, since they use fluorescent lights everywhere.
As for #3,Actually, most CFLs today give off light that is very comparable to incandescents. That's why when I switched in 2007, I had no problems with them because it was basically the same amount of light, with less wattage use. As far as light output, today's CFLs are nearly the same brightness at startup. There's a slight difference, but it's not that big of a deal IMO.
-They give horrible light
-They take long to reach maximum output.
I can go on for hours, but that would be boring.

« on: February 18, 2009, 05:16:17 PM »1. They have Mercury.1. If you take care to not break the lamp, mercury won't be an issue. Even if you do break it (I have once), CFL's don't contain much mercury, so it's not a HUGE issue, you just got to make sure the room is well ventilated and all the broken pieces are picked up and disposed of.
2. They require proper disposal (No one will do it)
3. It's just a horrible product from the ground up.
2. What I do is just stick burned out CFLs in a plastic bag (a sandwich bag should do fine) and then throw them away like that. Learned that from a Forecast Earth report.
3. What exactly do you mean?

« on: February 16, 2009, 08:32:59 PM »The only reason to why I think the weather channel may relaunch is because they haven't shown their "weather never looked so good" slogan since August....They just relaunched last June. They're not going to have another relaunch until at least several years from now.

« on: February 14, 2009, 11:39:20 PM »I think the 2AM showing of PME Weekend is a reprise from earlier at night, so they may or may not have a live PM Edition in the AM.Correct, it would work exactly how EEWC works now, with the 1 AM ET hour live and repeats at 2 and 3 AM ET, only now it'll be PMEWC.

« on: February 14, 2009, 01:57:07 PM »I just saw a commercial for ICHT and FFN airing from 2-4PM today. Could this just be a mistake, or is the 2-hour afternoon block really going to air on weekends too? I certainly hope not. Then again, with the recent layoffs I'm not surprised.They just said WWC will be on at 3 ET...
