Silly boy, why would I want to suffer 15 minutes of commercials when I

Try it, I'm sure you'll agree the rental of a digital recorder is
worth the money.
BTW...we record all the series we favour for later playback.


We DVR'd the new Cosmos series for that reason, so we could skip the
commercials. Loved the series, and the emphasis in several episodes on
evolution is still driving the "Cretins of Creationism" down here
crazy..they *demanded* equal time to sell their religious
stuporstitions. But National Geo turned them down.



What a segue. Couple of people discussing DVRs quickly eases into an
anti-religion rant by Harry. Typical.



At the same time it's interesting to watch my TV time go down as I learn
this channel, or that channel is run by intolerant haters. Now NatGeo
joins MSNBC, Food Channel, A+E and the Weather channel in the "not
really interested in their intolerant stuporstitions" category in my
watch list...
