ok, I sent my feedback there...
but I'll state it here that popups are intrusive and they should be banned
except for special announcements of nonadvertsing nature that you want people
that use a site to see as we get blind to the advertising after awhile and
wouldn't see the news there.
I am willing to pay for a website that doesn't have ANY advertising...
I was happy to pay $60 clams a year for the information and no advertising.
NOW you have my $60, make me wait for slow loading advertisements to load and
NOW spam us with popups...thanks...
The weather forecasting is not going to be worth $60 a year unless you retitle
it humor...
so perhaps make an advertsing free site that we pay $60 a year for?
