    I am staying with Dish Network

    Once again this month, I decided to stay with Dish Network, as I've done so for the past 53 months. I really thought you'd all be interested in that. As a long time visitor to the boards, I am always amazed by two things: 1) The number of people who really feel the need to post when...
