		<description>Not mocking.  It had me thinking of teevee in general, that&#039;s all.

As far as programming content and your vocation, you&#039;re giving &#039;em what they want, I suppose.

I cannot escape teevee.  If I go to a number of places around here there are large-screen teevee sports presentation (with commercials); where I used to live in Upstate there was a favorite bar run by a guy who liked all the best-known prime-time teevee shows (a good guy, just showing what most people wanted -- the rest of us wanted to see C-SPAN or we would go there when the State of the Union speech was to be made or there was a pre-election convention so we could either cheer the people or tear them apart depending on which way we leaned).

I also liked the political commercials whenever there was a health-related funding vote in Albany, commercials showing -- including with the most dumbed-down feature on the air today, &lt;em&gt;fast motion&lt;/em&gt; -- old women in walkers and wheelchairs ambling around a hospital lobby.  (faster than the sped-up NFL post-game footage, to force as many different individuals past the camera, in the hospital lobby, as possible)</description>

		<description>DLS - If you&#039;re mocking me for my over-statement of the obvious, well ... I probably deserve that.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;Some of us &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
Many people have, DLS. Amazingly, some have not.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I stopped watching television 25+ years ago.  (Too much low-IQ, low-quality, low-life garbage on it.)  I bet many people have.  Amazingly, some have not!</description>
