Valentine's Day
Saint Valentine's Day (commonly simply Valentine's Day) is an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

I urge you to contact your congressman and senator and tell them to keep the DTV broadcasting as it is now and not allow a change to LOW POWER broadcasting. If this happens, all Americans will loose.
This pdf document is the filing of comments by the NAB and MSTV to the FCC about the propsal by the CITA and CEA crooks.
Trains are cool and we need to get them back
Most people in America will fly or drive to get to their destination. As you know, there are way too many planes in the air and those fuel wasting commercial planes are all outdated. And the high way his overloaded with those fuel wasting SUV's and pickup trucks.. the people that still drive them should be taxed extra for their wasteful use of fuel.
I recently drove 2 hours to visit my Mom for xmass. It's ok to drive a short distance, but I would rather ride a train for that trip. I don't care how fast the train would travel, because the time is usable when you don't have to watch traffic. It would be neat to have internet access on the train so you could use a laptop. Many people would use the time to catch up on some sleep or just sight see along the way.
I really think we need to get back to using trains again like we had many years ago before the cars took over the transportation front. It is sad that many of the rail lines or tracks have been torn up over the years. We sure could use them now. Most of the old trains were electric powered with over-head power lines, but we could do it differently these days with our technology. I am quite sure we could come up with something that would be energy efficient and by using light weight passenger cars would help the cost of operation. A rail line is far cheaper than a road to build.
The state of Ohio is trying to get federal funds to help with a high speed rail system and I am all for it. Once it is in place and people get used to using the train, I am sure the system would be expanded to include more cities and towns. And train stations are much cheaper to build and maintain than airports are. Small towns would just need a platform to make boarding easy for disabled people. The train system would also provide stable employment for lots of people too, which would be great for the state of Ohio.There is no reason that we can't build and maintain the trains right here in Ohio which will provide additional jobs, not to mention maintaining the tracks. I personally think having a job connected with the rail system would be just fine.
Lets hope that the rail system gets funding and is installed quickly.. It will help the future of travel in Ohio.
