I'm sorry, Bruno, but I just cannot relate to that. smile Two months ago I switched off the power strip that feeds my TV, DVD player, and wireless headphone set. I had forgotten about it until a couple nights ago when I tried to play a DVD and nothing worked. It took me a moment to remember why.

It is just so incredibly liberating not to be chained to that idiot box, and I used to be a serious television Tivo addict (30+ hours a week!). But, different strokes and all that...
