Fort Vancouver Television

This is a community Public Access Channel on Comcast cable television.  

It had remarkably improved over the past couple of years that I have been aware of its existance watching the City of Vancouver - Clark County Telecommunications (cvtv's parent watcher.) meetings that handles the PEG  access and equipment funds that makes a part of this possible.

So if you have an interesting local viewpoint, you would like to share with all of us, take the classes, sign up for use of the cameras,fill out the producer forms and tell all of us about it.

further comments

Some people have asked me about my political views. The best answer I give them is I'm a political agnostic when it comes to elections. I do have a central core base of things that I look for in a candidates but they're not your traditional Democrat, Republican or independant voting block type. 

Some friends, family and locals have tried to survey me, try get me to go to church gatherings and information sessions on local candidates but for some reason I am usually one of the most informed person in the room on a subject. (its very rare to find some one who can beat me on subject.) 

Some of my closest friends might know that I have a personal interest in Clark County transportation, transit (also Metro regional council from Portland) SWRTC, finding local news that is being missed by the local news media, Puget Sound Ferry boats, Washington and Oregon state politics, Columbia River Crossing Project, Columbia Waterfront LLC and many other projects too numerous to count. 

So my interests very quite widely.
