alternative sources like AlJazeera. I am also still a fan of PBS, though there are those here that think they have lost their way.

I really dislike highly partisan news outlets, including those that have a strong left leaning bias. MSNBC to me is not much better than FOX. Sure, they say what I like to hear, but their bias makes them untrustworthy, imo. They are just trying to get a bigger audience.

Sorry, missed that you were in Houston. I have spent little time there so don't really know what is going on.

Hurricane bingo?
