Why don’t they delay it forever? The whole thing is just stupid. I can’t wait for the first big emergency post dtv changeover when people can’t get a local TV signal anywhere. Sometimes TV stations broadcast on radio in these circumstances, but it will probably happen suddenly. They should can the whole idea, which came about in an effort to sell a lot of expensive TVs.

It will happen. And, when it does, I can see Obama and the Democrats suggesting taxpayers pay for HDTVs for the poorest amongst since they must have a working TV in case of an emergency.
