Hunt for the Samurai Subs on National Geographic
Was on TV last night. I recorded & watched today.
Late in WWII,  the Japanese developed & built submarines that carried 3 bomber aircraft. Fortunately WWII ended & they never got to use them on US targets. Look at the pictures & video on the links below.

One day, in my dreams, we will be able to select the channels we want and not have to take the other garbage we are already paying for...I'll gladly trade ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, MSNBC, "BuyMoreStuff Network" channels 1,2,3,4,5 thru 21, E!, MTV, Tru TV, Golf, ESPN 1,2,3 and any more, SciFy, etc. for even one of the following:
National Geographic
Military
etc.

We get both Military and Nat Geo, and Comcast is adding more all the time, but it would be certainly wonderful to get the A-La-Carte way to select your channels. The International History channel my brother gets, but we dont, and we both have Comcast.
Last time I spoke with a Comcast rep, and asked about the A-La-Carte option, they said that thousands of people have asked for this.
At the present, they have to buy their channel lineups in 'packages' and have to offer them to their customers that way, but the time is coming someday that this will change.
