    I went to NBC's website to see their schedule of programming. I got a big headache at first but figured out some sort of schedule for myself as I want to record the swimming events, especially since I am from the Baltimore area. (Actually, I grew up in the Towson, Maryland area.) I know that NBC might not be the best, but it's better than nothing! That being said, NBC is rebroadcasting the previous day's events early in the morning following the prime time broadcast. All of the listing are on NBC (check your local cabel channel) and the times, I believe are EDT. (Don't ask me which day has which event!) Here goes: AUGUST 15: 2:00 AM - 5:30 AM AUGUST 16: 2:00 AM - 4:30 AM AUGUST 17: 2:00 AM - 4:30 AM AUGUST 18: 2:00 AM - 4:30 AM AUGUST 19: 2:00 AM - 4:30 AM AUGUST 20: 2:00 AM - 4:30 AM AUGUST 21: 2:00 AM - 5:30 AM AUGUST 22: 2:00 AM - 5:30 AM In addition . . . AUGUST 13: 8:00 PM - 11:30 PM Opening Ceremonies AUGUST 29: 7:00 PM - 10:30 PM Closing Ceremonies Since the prime time coverage is during the day, the probability of my taking off from work, life (honey-do stuff), etc., is about zero to nothing, so recording the rebroadcasts seems to work for me. I am curious, anyone else doing some time shifting here? Also, what format would you use: VHS tape or DVD? I am using DVD myself. It will be an interesting week, nonetheless, for swimming. Gee, I wonder who "you know who is?" :D
