for those of you interested in getting the Science Fiction Channel the best
way to get your cable company to subscribe is to present them with a
simple, handwritten petition with a couple of hundred signatures.
Your local comic book store or science fiction bookseller shoiuld be the 
best place rto start or find a petition to sign.

For those of you here in Ames, Mayhem comics has started a petition.  They
have about 100 signatures already but they are looking for 250 before they
turn it in to heritage cablevision.  I urger(urge) you to sign it if you haven't already.

Sigh.  I wish that worked out here!!  The local comic shop has petitions,
the Whoosier Network has petitions, there were petitions at InConjunction,
but so far, American Cablevision shows no interest at all in getting the
SF Channel.  Seeing the adverts for it on USA is VERY depressing (whimper).

I've pretty much given up hope on the local cable company.  Fortunately, the 
SCI-FI Channel will not scramble their signal for about 6 months which will
give me time to scrap up the money for a descrambler and then I'll tell them
what they can do with their cable.
