Comment on TVUUC Shooting by Will

It’s been 2 1/2 years. I was there that day. About a year later I was driving, windows open, on Kingston Pike, the main east/west road in town, when a woman in a huge pick-up started screaming at me that “you people ought to be put down like dogs…” It took a moment for me to understand she was loosing control over my Obama Biden bumper sticker. Now I really do feel like the conservatives are genuinely evil. I’ve watched murder – been threatened myself – by people who claim the moral high ground for their hatred. I’ve also resigned from TVUUC because I can’t sit still in the sanctuary anymore. The terrorist won – and he claimed to be a Christian American Patriot.

I have been, in general, happy with their service over the years. The hardware is reliable and I’ve not had no more bad experiences with their tech support than anyone else. It’s just annoying to run into these kinds of hiccups in what is otherwise good support.

I ditched Lenovo for their lousy service, not to mention that they had to change the hard drive half a dozen times and couldn’t give me a straight answer as to why they were using such shoddy parts. And I sent them an email saying why I was NEVER buying their products again, AND giving a negative recommendation to everyone I know.

Good luck to y’all. My wife and I moved to Canada for my job three years ago, when I graduated from UNC with my PhD in religious studies. There’s a lot about the Triangle to miss up here, but you’ll find other things you enjoy too.

Comment on Fun and games with Time Warner Cable by Lance

Digital antennas aren’t going to get me online any time soon. I’ve actually been pleased with my TWC service since I moved to Hillsborough. The signal is good and the only time (until now) I’ve had problems was when an apartment complex employee went into the main cable distribution box and swapped my apartments feed onto a splitter improperly.

If I didn’t need high-speed internet I’d think about dropping TWC, but since its really the only game in my area, I’m stuck.

We like our digital antennas, one pointing north and the other south. Living between Milwaukee and Chicago, we have access to four PBS channels, and each one of those has three or more sub-channels. We get the major networks and lots of other channels too. We don’t get the channels available only on cable or dish, but don’t consider that too much of a sacrifice. In the eight months we’ve had this arrangement, we have not experienced any weather related disruptions.
