How many people will flip the switch tomorrow morning and wonder why
the TV does not work?

Nobody told me! Next week will probably be a sales boon for the TV
stores too.

When did they pass a law that everybody has to have TV? I can easily
believe that most of the households that haven't converted don't WANT
to convert, or have nothing to convert.

For that matter, there was never any broadcast TV at my house, so
nothing has changed.

you've had cable ever since you were born?
I predate cable.

I have lived over half my life without TV, though I have satellite TV
now. If you don't have TV, you don't miss it. I have neighbors who
forego the satellite dish and just subscribe to Netflix. All the TV
shows show up on DVD in short order anyway.

The only cables in my neighborhood come on logging winches.
