My problem with the digital signal is the aspect ratio.  I know there are
several ways to display it, but no matter what, they cant come up with a
picture that looks natural aspect wise with a converter

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 :)
