You know, I payed $80 for this hotel I am staying at tonight. I'm with everyone else here, in that this evening still deserves attention. But come on, it has evolved into one massive line essentially. As of 5 minutes ago, there are only 3 tornado warnings to be found. Anyone want to tell me what is wrong with going back to the schedule with LFs?

You'd think TWC would learn by now that all this excessive longform and the movie nights are not doing them any favors. With the activity likely to be stepping up in the coming months, they'll have to have all kinds of issues preempting longform and the movies (including Trammell, which we saw earlier), and end up calling back the OCM's anyways.

Local Forecast / Re: General LF Discussion
« on: April 30, 2010, 10:10:28 PM »As Does Buffalo NY (IIRC from a YT video)That's actually Toronto. Many upstate NY Intellistars have Toronto on their regional maps.
They must not like putting Canadian cities on there.I doubt it's intentional... judging from how quickly Intellistars were configured years ago.
But also, look at this metro map. Mount Pleasant is placed where Clare actually is, Shepherd is placed where Mount Pleasant is actually located, and Shepherd is placed where Alma is actually located. It's beyond me why Shepherd... a town of about 1400... should be on any Intellistar map.

I think I may have seen it once down in Lansing and once in Ohio years ago.
But yeah, that oil spill truly is starting to be a major concern. I sure hope those assessing and attempting to fix the issue are doing everything they possibly can. Lots of officials will be under intense scrutiny the next few weeks, I'm sure. Also, I wonder... might this do anything to tropical developments this summer in the Gulf?

« on: April 30, 2010, 08:35:14 PM »On a positive note, if I catch the overnight songs I wanted, I might be able to get some sleep tonightAlso, any particular reason they are airing overnight music on the local forecasts?Probably a glitch in the system since it's usually not configured to air regular playlist music on Friday evenings.

I'm a little sick of this horribly configured regional map...

woo! no dual feeds, no stupid movie whatsoever! This satisfies me for some reason.
Your not the only one
