To follow-up to a story we posted about yesterday, it looks as though the House denied the measure to delay the digital TV transition by four months. It was a unanimous vote, 258-168, so it’s unlikely that there will be a change of heart before the cut-off date, which remains February 17. So from this point forward, there is less than three weeks before this goes into effect, so the time to take action is now, if you need to.
I’ll jump to conclusions and assume everyone reading our site is well-aware of the change, and has been for quite some time, but even if your household is prepared for the switch, why not make sure your entire family is as well? Chances are that despite the constant warnings on the TV, some people will still choose to either ignore it, or will jump to conclusions and assume it won’t effect them. So, do your family a favor and make sure their up to speed on the switch! If your grandmother misses an episode of Lost, the blame will be shifted to you. We all know this.
