Hands up! Who Else is a CSPAN Junkie? I am

It was in response to the CSPAN group (primarily 3 of us, notadmblnd, Viva_La_Revolution and myself).

Here are the responses:

Since that post we have continued posting daily schedules, the "pointer" being in the CSPAN group and the details in both GEN and GDP forums.

Still the response and participation is rather thin. For example, in GEN over 12 hours there have been zero replies. It slipped to the 3rd or 4th page.

It's one thing to say you are a junkie, it's another to use the tool and participate.

Viva_La_Revolution, notadmblnd and I will be reconsidering our options.

1. 0 replies in 14 hours. Oh well.

Due to continuing lack of support, I will no longer be contributing to the CSPAN effort.

2. Thank you guys for your efforts...

It was appreciated, I've been away from my computer most of the day and didn't get to tell you until now.

3. Not so much a junkie, as a regular

Before Cable news was so prevalent, I watched CSPAN more. Now I watch it for the extended coverage the others never have.

The callers are almost all idiots, and while I enjoy the comments of those in the studio, I can't listen to the call-in morans blab their ignorance based nonsense.
