"The answer was lack of subscriptions"
Actually, according to your posts so far, the answer was that the community didn't throw every dollar they owned at the network, not that we lacked subscriptions. If that was the answer, you wouldn't have said that the GLBT community didn't step up to the plate. It continues to amaze me how quickly you can change what you say, sidestep your initial statement, and continue as if what your currently saying is what you've said all along.
Will have to post more after midnight, this is my 15th post of the day, like the second time ever I've maxed out, hurrah for me.
Edit: In response to above post...
"if you don't add any more thoughts to what I said and stay with the thought I presented you would understand the conversation better....anything else would be a new conversation."
Actually I took your thoughts word for word, if you don't believe me, go read for yourself.
