Default Discovery Wings

I've been an "Expanded Basic Cable" guy for the last 20 years.. In
the mid 90's Discovery Wings was included and I could watch it any
time of the day and be highly entertained. Then they moved it high up
into the tier and out of my channel range. Then it became the
Military Channel.

I recently up dated my AV system to join this millennium and the
Military Channel is now in my channel line up.

What a POS!

My question is, does anyone have the back story of how the Discovery
Wings channel became the Military Channel? Everybody I knew
considered Discovery Wings a fantastic channel and I assumed it had
high ratings.

Now I've got 250 channels including such winners as the Extreme Basket
Weaving Channel. I can't for the life of me figure out why some
network genius can't see the value of bringing back Discovery Wings.

I thin kthey just ran out of programs. I started seeing rerun after
rerun on it before it died.
