Eventually, yes. I'm trying to shrink them in size first. They're too large in size for me to send to you. Also, I want to locate some more and send them all to you at once. I'll have to speak with you on AIM later this week or something. I don't have a lot of time now. Off to work!

I've uploaded several more Istar clips (including one or two from 2004), as well as OCM clips (including Hillary Andrews) to my YT account!

Note that some aren't live yet as they're still being "processed."

I've added a bunch of TWC videos tonight to Youtube, even some from 2002/2003!

Note: Not all may be processed yet.

Gary: I'll be in touch at some point about adding them to the site.

This affects two Pittsburgh area locations, including the Monroeville Mall and South Hills Village locations. It was kind of surprising to hear this earlier today, seeing as how both stores opened at both locations less than two years ago!

Victor, i'm back!

Thank you, very much for announcing your return. I think I'll crawl up into a corner now and slowly weep.

Interesting how those county lines are missing, Billy.

Speaking of STAR oddities, when I was in Erie this past new days, I noticed the regional map was totally fudged up. Pittsburgh was placed over where Wheeling, Wva should be; and Harrisburg was placed over where Pittsburgh should be (and the funny thing is, Harrisburg's physical location couldn't be seen on the map!).

This sounds more like a headend problem, rather than a TWC problem. What leads me to say this is that local commercials are still playing.

No, but I see Comcast is now giving away a free Wii when subscribing to their Triple-Play deal (for new customers only).

Weatherscan Discussion / Re: Weatherscan Topic

« on: August 02, 2008, 05:54:41 PM »

I noticed another weird thing about some Weatherscans. I noticed that some Weatherscans the airport segments are displayed as "AIRPORT" and others say "AIRPORTS." Also, for the radar segment some display "YOUR LOCAL RADAR," others show "[NAME OF CITY] RADAR" and also simply "RADAR." Any reason why?

It all depends on who's programming it, and what their preference is. Just like on the domestic Istar, it all depends on the preference of the person programming it to decide the moniker they use (Downtown, Metro, Area, Metro Area, Greater [city], etc).
