I inquired with our local PBS affiliate, KERA, and they informed me last
October that they had no plans to air the Tesla documentary. I believe the
problem is that they are offered more programming than they have air time.
(There's only 24 hours a day). I suspect that KERA's programmers are much
alike the general public; Tesla? Who the heck is Tesla?

I went for the throat by replying that I felt that the Tesla documentary
was important and that as a long time subscriber/supporter of Public
Television, their decision not to air this program would influence my
decision to renew my subscription. I've also encouraged others in this area
to contact KERA and tell them they'd like to see this show aired. Since
that time I've noticed that the program has been scheduled for Dec. 26th.
at 9:00 PM.

I don't know if I had anything to do with changing their minds, but the
station programmers may not know otherwise if you don't at least tell them
you'd like to see the Tesla program aired.

fwiw,
