I happen to like hummingbird wards. Only in that I don't get them back in
TN and here they are likely to kill each other over a bit of sugar water.

Oh, you mean DTV? Heh. I hate being forced to go digital by February 2009.
Sure, it's nicer, maybe even better. But since it's not likely I'll be home
by February 2009 I'll just have to worry about it when I get back home to my
analog TV. Maybe then I'll have a converter box. Or I'll just have to go
back to reading books, which I much prefer
