Subject: Re: [EverQuest] 'Call for Help'


It's merely a coincidence albeit ironic that the show is called "Call For Help".  However, it is not what you surmise it to be.  It is a computer help show.  They introduce new technologies and give you tips and hints on how to use Windows, Macs, and virtually every other computer oriented device.  It's a wonderful show that explains technology in very simple language.  However, it does strike me as odd that Call For Help would want to do the bit on Everquest, because it does sound more up the alley of The Screen Savers, another computer oriented show.  Both Call For Help and The Screen Savers (although not so much recently) are (were) hosted by a man named Leo Laporte  (www.leoville.com).  Leo also does a tech talk show on California radio and has numerous books out.  He's a big brain and an amazingly funny guy.  I used to watch TechTV when it was originally ZDTV.  And I still watch it on the occasional basis when I have the time and when I'm not in EQ.  I'd suggest checking out TechTV's website.  It will give you links to every show and you can find out for yourself what kind of show Call For Help is.

I have to admit that I raised an eyebrow after reading that the show that
wants to interview an EverQuest addict is called 'Call for Help.' I think if
it was a different type of show, no one would have bashed it, but obviously
the only point they want an addict on it is so they can bash US. I have to
say, nice try, but no one wants to be put through that. We like EverQuest...
deal with it.
