Title: 10 passwords starting with the letter A...
Post by: Clay Zambo on October 31, 2006, 11:14:47 AM

Was it just an overeager board op at my cable system, or did GSN cut off today's Alphabetics?  Literally, Allen introduced the board to John Aston and his partner, and then--blip!--somebody's trying to hawk a new fireplace screen.

I thought I'd bumped the "Previous Channel" button, but no.

Hm.

Board ops at cable systems?  Is that what they call the Digimatic 3000 Commercial Insertion System?

Nope. It happened here too, but out of curiosity, who's your cable provider?

Charter here. Must've been GSN's own goof, then.
