enough has truly been said. Much of what is on TV is garbage so who cares!

Which is exactly why I have not bothered about looking into DTV yet. I will put it on my priority list in a week or so.

Currently we have basic cable without any cable boxes and I have not looked into what will happen or what we need to do on the February date. All I know is that it is bound to cost me more money.

Digital transition affects over the air TV broadcast. It has no affect on Cable and Satellite providers.

The cable system even for basic cable is a closed system so the channels and how they are transmitted for even basic cable won't change, it's only for over the air reception. Now if 6 months your cable provider decides to stop analog broadcasts you'll have to go and get some kind of box or cable card.

Powerful words! and part of what is wrong with Americans today.

First off, it's not about what's on Television.. it's about law. It's about accountability of our government. And, when it comes to government - it's not THEY vs US.. it has to do with the people WE people chose to put IN that body of people who make these laws.

Why should you care? .. becuase it's not about what's ON tv.. its about society in general and how we chose to govern ourselves.

Any of these sayings making sense to you yet?

If you don't care.. then really maybe you should shut up and stop bitching since you obviously don't care. If you don't care, and you don't remain involved in the process, then you have NO right to speak up - at all.

Sorry - but it's the truth.

The fact you make it an issue about "garbage on TV" says much about you as a person.
