this is a very desirable move for all of us to take. i know that the last time tci was looking into programming changes, someone at the denver post printed that information, and i wrote in to them about bravo. i received no reply. now that there is someone at boulder cable who is interested, it is worth a second try. anything to improve the intellectually impoverished fare we get on cable. note the deterioration in A&E over the past decade, for instance. the only problem with bravo is the fact that they edit (censor) some of their movies. however, their opera offerings are excellent. note: the real reason tci doesn't want to carry bravo is that they do not own a piece of it. i believe they own a piece of many of the cable channels they carry, such as AMC, discovery, etc. this vertical integration hurts us as customers. on the other hand, if you own stock, it is just great! -- arthur wouk internet: wouk@alumni.cs.colorado.edu
