a guess is on the way
Here is the solved puzzle:
"The cable television company that serves Columbia, S. C., aimed a camera full~time at an aquarium to occupy a vacant channel while awaiting the start~up of the Science~Fiction Channel. When the Science~Fiction Channel replaced the “fish channel” complaints were so numerous that the cable company were forced to find another channel for the aquarium, which it ran 14 hours a day.
~~ The World Almanac and Book of Facts 1994”

GOOD LUCK!!!!
Casper & Kitty submitted the winning guess. I bolded the areas in the puzzle where the errors in the three wrong guesses were. Most everyone prior to C&K assumed 'aimed' was 'aired'. C&K is unfortunately not feeling top of form right now and wishes to pass on hosting the next puzzle. High scorer is Luckies4Me -- are you willing to host the next?
Thank you all for participating in this one. It's been fun, thanks!
