I just don't understand the whining that I hear everywhere about the
cost of XM weather. In an era where folks pay close to $100/month for
cable television, give a cell phone to every pre-teen in their
household, and drive huge SUVs, I can't understand where the pain of
paying $30-$50/month for weather uplink is coming from.


You don't understand that most people *don't* pay close to $100/month for cable
TV, *don't* hand out cell phones like candy, and *don't* drive huge SUVs. That's
why you can't understand that many of us will find $30-$50/month for a glorified
radio a PITA.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.
