  I thought I would mention this because there are so few decent channels
  on TV anymore....
  DISH offers the Documentary Channel, and we have found it to be very
  entertaining, like PBS, but without the commercials and pledge drives.
  I'm not sure how long DISH has offered this, but I was not aware of it
  until we ditched all but the local channels.  As it turns out, some
  channels are free and this is one of them.  We may have had it before,
  but it got lost in the shuffle of all those other channels. It may be
  some kind of introductory offer, I don't know for sure, but it is a good
  channel.
  Last night, we watched a program about eco footprints and
  sustainability, and tonight we watched a program filmed in present day
  NC about moonshiners, and then one on the Amish.  Both programs were
  exceptionally entertaining.  The subjects I've seen have been topics
  that are of interest to homesteaders, I think.  If you have DISH, look
  for it. It is channel 197 on my guide, but I'm sure yours would be
  different.

  not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius
  will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
  world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
  are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve
  the problems of the human race"
