Ever hear of Current TV?

Well, until this past weekend neither had I. Current TV is a channel dedicated to viewer created content that actually rocks. Imagine what it would be like to sit for an hour and instead of watching what funny thing Ross and Rachel are gonna do next, you get a 5 minute look into the world of a single mother with an autistic child, an 8 minute segment on deforestation in the amazon, a 10 minute look into the rebounding world of post Katrina Louisiana, and some art and music news thrown into the mix. If you get this channel through your local provider, check it out. On Saturday I watched a great chunk of segments in cooperation with "TV Free Burning Man" where you get a view of theme camps, how its built, art cars, the full burn of the man, and the amazing MUST WATCH segment on the full burn of "Crude Awakening" a 90 foot tall oil derrick, 8 50 foot tall oil worshiping statues, and 10,000 gallons of gasoline burned in 26 seconds! All of these segments are online to watch on their website...
