Title: You´ll never walk alone...
Post by: THE EYE on September 12, 2001, 08:10:27 PM

Hello friends,

there is a TV Station in Germany called GIGA (it´s a comp. of NBC Germany) and it´s a Gameing and Internet TV Station which normaly brings the latest news about that stuff...
But they now cancelled their normal program in order to bring ppl together and show support.
They normaly have a Homepage that´s full of Internet News and stuff... but now you can sign into a single list and say that you feel with you Americans.
Keep in mind that this is no "big" TV Station and it is not watched by everyone... look at the list... we are with you !!!
Now for the number that signed. It has started only 12 hours ago and still going up... the number is: 16.500...

The List (http://newsletter.giga.de/usa/index.php)

Thats is pretty nice. (Umm I was just about to ask myself. Why won\'t I ever walk alone.  Then I thought about it.  It\'s 1:44am and I am dead tired but that was pretty funny)

Thanks for posting those links.  Although it looks like some people have been spamming the name list with joke entries, there are many more real entries, so that was reassuring.  I saw several people posting from Ludwigshafen, which is just across from where I used to live in Mannheim.  Thanks again.

Europe will now take a hold on any activity for 5 minutes of silence.

Coredweller those entries you´ve seen are community names of the members of the GIGA community... they sometimes sound funny, but those are only their Forum Names. Please be sure, nobody is making jokes about what happend !!!

No one is allowed to make jokes about it, and anybody who does it is an enemy.

...just an update:
This TV Station didn´t turn back to normal program... instead
they role the list all day long, in silence, for the rest of the week... above 40.000 by now... and there are so many more lists like this all over Europe.
