    PS: At the end of one of those
    retro-retrospectives it is stated
    television was begun as early as
    it was so that the infrastructure
    to manufacture CRTs would be in
    place to build thousands of Radars
    in time for WWII.

    Also... during the war...
    The TV transmitter was used to
    mislead the Greman bomber
    navigation beams!

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
