no CBS on Charter?
Charter will no longer carry KMOV-TV (Belleville News-Democrat)
[the comments on BND are pretty good]
St Louis television station and Charter at impasse (St Louis Post Dispatch)
This doesn’t really bother me all that much. We watch KSDK/NBC for our news. The only time we watch CBS is to catch Survivor or Amazing Race (although I’ve kinda watched How I Met Your Mother in recent months). So when it comes to time to catch these shows, I can pick it up over the air (using the new digital converters as of Feb 9, of course). Otherwise, not my loss. At least, not unless Charter caves to KMOV and starts charging an additional body part to the arm and a leg that I’m already paying for to get their services.

Earthquake measuring 5.2 rattles St. Louis region
The house shook briefly at 4:37 am. Christine jumped out of bed to go take a look saying, “That can’t be good!” I was half-asleep, only recalling the windows rattle and the bed shaking. I thought nothing of it, thinking the bed moved because of Christine getting up. She could’ve sworn something hit the house, but saw nothing outside except several small tree limbs. I was so tired, I just figured it was “Bob” the possum running across our deck. It wasn’t until her mom called at 6:45 am to point out that it was an earthquake measuring 5.2 on the Richter scale. Wow! Everything’s ok with no major damage; it certainly has everyone talking this morning.
