I have a hunch it won't come to pass in Feb.  I still expect there to 
be some kind of large scale lawsuit to block it on behalf of the 
millions of people, like myself, who have no interest in being told 
by the federal government that I need to go buy a new TV.  Let alone 
having the disposable income to do so.

What's going to piss voters off more- bailing out Wall Street fat 
cats or waking up to no TV?  :)

Your suggestion is well worth sending directly to the various 
representatives.  But the NAB will put a price on your head :)

With the American economy about to swirl down the ol' U-bend, may I 
suggest the drop-dead February date for switching off all domestic 
analog TV signals be pushed ahead to sometime next autumn, say in 
time for next Christmas?
