I do not think this is true. I am in the Providence market and know that the Providence HD channels have not even been uplinked yet.
 
Oh, c'mon now! Where's the love? Where's the usual Monday attitude?

How about a "this Wednesday is the 16th and 1 + 6 is 7 and 7's a lucky number and Charlie is known to be a gambler so there must be new national HD coming on Wednesday (but don't call me on it if I'm wrong)" post?

:D:D:D
