A Potpourri of Thanks

Erie Media-Go-Round is only 2 weeks old and I am pleased with the responses I have been getting not just from Erie, but from broadcast centers from Washington, DC to Kansas City and beyond. Glad to hear from so many former Erie residents who are now able to enjoy the fruits of network high definition... maybe someday Erie will too.
I also want to thank some of the other blogs that have noticed and posted links to this blog and hope that our readers will check them out as well:
Thanks to PBRTV.com and Tom Lavery. Tom helps host and posts news about media from around our area as well as those in Pittsburgh. He shares our network suffering but he also finds it amusing.
Erieblogs.com is the grand daddy of all the news fit to blog about Erie hosted by Dennis Weed. Dennis was gracious to mention us in the very first 24 hours we started and sent me a personal note of support.
Ohio Media Watch at ohiomedia.blogspot.com/ contains news about the broadcast scene from Ashtabula, Cleveland Akron and Youngtown.
Joel Natalie at Nataliemedia.com pointed a post this way. I have not seen Joel in many years, but used to have some very spirited conversations with him for sure.
Of course, a much appreciated thank you to the many others of you who I haven't seen in years, but I appreciate hearing from your pen in comments and in private emails. It makes these difficult times at home worth it.
We will keep going.

Jack, I echo the above sentiments. I look forward to CIVILIZED and intelligent discussions of local media. Let's hope the caustic comments can be kept to a minimum...keeping in mind that, unfortunately, that's the only way some people know how to communicate!
