    So long...farewell...

    I bit the bullet and called tha cable company today. After TiVo my wife couldn't adapt to the 522 or it's bugs. The final straw was last night, I guess lighting from the storm must have got the switch, because I now get all channels except locals. Since my wife's soaps and reality show are...
