"Satellite Center." Just those two words together sounds so....Weather
Channel. Local Access Cable. 1960s NASA. Remember "Via Satellite?" Ooo,
satellite. Too bad only 7 has one of those. I bet all of the other
stations would like one too. Oh, well. I have no other choice than to
watch the station with the "Satellite Center."
