Well, I like my sports, too, BUT when you sign up for world breaking
news updates, seeing a basketball story come through with priority tells

truly important, or maybe, probably, they have so successfully dumbed us
down to the point where Gass's quote applies to almost everyone.... If
that was your point in the quote, then sorry to be a few steps behind.

Bev, does "you sign up" mean that you pay for certain types of news? If so, what is the service, and do they offer options?
