Here is only my second Posting ever in my four months here. Since I was gone for a day, I did not realize how much of a response I got until I was back home. A lot of people asked for explanations, so I gave it to them.
Alright. It's clear you didn't take my nominations seriously, due to the fact that only one of you appears to have actually checked the older version of "PBS" still listed at Alta Vista before I came by to repair the damage you've done to the Barney Channel. NOW TAKE A LOOK: http://dir.altavista.com/Top/Arts/Television/Public_Television . Before I reorganized "Pubic Broadcasting", you clowns had "DYKE TV" listed next to Great Performances and a High School program that has long since disbanded. I had to rake up the leaves that were scattered along the bottom of the Page when I arrived. And why is AltaVista so slow in taking changes from us?
Yes, Public Broadcasting means more than just PBS, which is why I had Links to "Public Access". What else is there supposed to be under "Public Television"? Anything else usually is only local stuff that goes under "Regional". Unless you guys thought I should list all those WWF, Pokemon, and I Love Lucy sites people keep submitting to me? Someone even submitted Real Estate Sites to New Jersey's Public Television Folder. You ought to have an Award, if not at least a "Fun" page of the goofiest submissions you've received.
And so I left a few descriptions vague. I virtually created that entire "Programs" catgeory by myself, typing in every www.PBS-Program-Here.com to see what I could find. Most are self explanatory. You guys didn't even have the Official Teletubbies Site listed ANYWHERE! You ANIMALS! Then I see the Mozilla Image seen with Tinky Winky in those pictures we can choose from. Do you know how many Java-Errors those Sites had that locked up my Windows 3.1? All of them! I mean, when you have a program called "Nature", do I REALLY have to waste space by putting a description that says "This program is about NATURE"?
Under "Mister Rogers", do you want me to explain that the show is about a kind old man who changes his sneakers every time he enters or leaves his house, never been married, lived in the same house for 50 years with the same Mail-Man (who writes letters to this guy?), has a Trolly storming through the wall like clockwork throughout the day, and spends most of his time in "The Land of Make-Believe"? People kinda already know, don't they?
I still nominate myself. I should be getting paid for this. My E-mail is my PayPal account by the way.

After a day or two, I Edited my posting to make it shorter, realizing that my explanations to their questions was long, and the people attacking me had read it, because they begun replying again. I replaced the above with this:
