Plan 9 via webcast right now!
Go here: http://www.theitsaliveshow.com/

There's a green link near the middle of the right side of the page.


The backstory is this: The It's Alive show is a weekly horror-host show filmed in Pittsburgh and aired over local station WBGN. However, due to the infinite and voracious greed of Comcast, WBGN will soon be dropped from the listings, because the owner of the channel can't pay Comcast's exorbitant fees.

Thing is, the other local stations (network affiliates) aren't required to pay, so WBGN is getting hosed.


Click the link if you'd care to watch the inimitable classic Plan 9 From Outer Space or if you'd just care to check in with another little guy who'se getting stomped by Comcast.
