THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME

Stardate December 31, 2008-TV as we knew it ends as U. S. Broadcasters are required by law to switch off their last analog transmitters and complete the transition to digital.

Bandwidth will be auctioned and millions have been set aside by congress to provide converters to cave dwelling citizens who haven't sold their analog TV's as collector's items on E-Bay.
