SPEAKOUT

Better go with the flow

I'm calling about a town south of Sikeston. They had a meeting about the drainage system and stuff. They said they wanted the citizens to attend. It don't do any good to attend any meetings. They don't let you ask any questions. If you don't agree with them, they tell you to be quiet. If you can't speak up, why go? And I'm not the only one that feels that way.

Channel questions

Every time we turn on Charter Channel 179, which is FLIX, we see a sign that says, "One moment please. This channel will be available shortly." This is Channel 179 on Charter FLIX. But it is seldom on. Our question is why are we paying for this channel if it's never on? And our second question is why doesn't Charter address this problem? And thirdly, I hope this will encourage other Charter subscribers paying for more than they get, to complain. It's very simple.

Contact Charter with your concerns. Their toll-free number is 1-800-936-1490.

Take it to the limit

Do you know if there is a normal shelf life for prescription medication?

We contacted a local pharmacy with your question. They said that medication should be used within one year from the time you pick it up.
