You don't need to act like a jerk. I missed Scott's announcement, and he doesn't have it on the front page so it is easy to miss it.

He took time to relay info on something that is important to many of us. Maybe cut him a little slack and leave the snide comments out of it.

That csr must be a member here.

I can't remember anything much that was not here first before Dish could tell us what was up.

I do agree. No reason to be a jerk to someone putting up good info.

bobvick deleted his post flaming the original poster for posting supposedly redundant information.

bobvick, my apologies if I hit YOU too hard. I get cranky when Good Samaritans get slammed for their efforts... Thanks for deleting the post.
