Jeffrey, you're clearly a very bright person. You could do better than you have in this discussion. It's not necessary to show the level of contempt that you do to the people who argue with you. It's not going to win the other adults in your life over to your side. Please, turn down the heat.
I only show this contempt for you, as your rants are typically devoid of logic and are full of fallacies. Perhaps it's immature, but I guess I'm kind of done trying to debate with you. Perhaps I've slipped into ad hominem, but at least I'm not trying to claim it as a valid debate point.
However, as in the other thread, I'll concede so as to spare the others.
PBS is still a broadcast station. Analog PBS stations were a little fuzzy some of the time in Lawrence, KS, but the "crap" stations (the only ones you seem to know about) came in quite clearly. Essentially analog-to-digital will make Lawrence, KS, lose all the good broadcast TV while still retaining all the crap broadcast TV. Personally I consider being denied good TV while being allowed crap TV to be a loss.
Time to get cable, or a better antenna. It's time to progress. You'll have to cope. This isn't my opinion, it's everyone's, as represented by our government. You had your time to complain and do something about this, it's been known about for a very long time.
Jeffrey.
