seems like it even though the quoted post was posted before Zach's.

Anyways, who's seen Shrek 4 and what do you guys think of it if you have seen it?

I can't believe Kim just said a "chance of tornadoes in the philadelphia area".

I don't remember the national crawl being activated last year. If it did, I'd have a video of it. They usually do that if a major hurricane or tropical system was going to come to a certain part of the country like Hannah or Gustav

How? I thought Dish didn't have headends.
Weather Cast was going to use specialized broadcast methods to provide regional data. TWC will likely use the same or even (if Dish wants to foot the bill) do like they do with local channels.

Martin, they'd have to go in space and take care of that on their satellites. And then it wouldn't be local.
You do know DISH has locals right? I am not saying a WeatherScan for every city but strategically placed and layed out it wouldn't be hard to do regional systems.

Its a win win for everyone.
TWC brings more attention to WeatherScan (something they were planning on anyway)
DISH gets local 24/7 weather
Its CHEAP and requires no outside company and personnel.
TWC can keep doing its programming as is.
WeatherScan could probably even be used for the dual feed (can it already?)

Even DIsh is capable of having this technology, would it mean that cable intellistars on DISH are possible in the near future as well?

I hope so. For some reason, a crappy summer always occurs during a nonactive Hurricane season.

Well, I'm back home in WV really early as I already found and signed the contract to a nice 2-bedroom apartment in Blacksburg where the gas heat was even included in the rent. I'll be making the official move sometime during the last ten days of June.

Congrats bud!!!!

Glad to see things improving for ya.
