HD Radio Sales reached "Low Hundred Thousands" in 2006

I just finished watching the newscast on-demand, full-screen, online. Thanks for the heads-up. Can't recall ever seeing anything about HD radio on a network newscast. Have you?
 
Imus in the morning has talked about it. They did a segment on the Today show before Christmas. I've seen LOTS about it on local broadcasts, but they usually are clueless. It's scary...every time a local tv station does a story that I have personal knowledge of (something that happens in my neighborhood, or something happens in tech that I keep up with...computers/audio/etc), they ALWAYS get something wrong. Usually something big. It makes me wonder about their accuracy on the other stories that I DON'T have personal knowledge of. Do they ever fact-check ANYTHING? (Sorry to digress, but it's really bothersome! My local papers and radio stations tend to be right more than wrong on the facts).

If HD Radio, hasn't even been in local newpapers RS, CC, etc flyers/ads (talking the Washington Post, here), it certainly hasn't been on TV ! :D
 
Actually it's been on tv. I've seen it, and I've told you where. Just because you haven't doesn't mean that it hasn't.

A car accident killed a man in Thurmund NC on Monday. It wasn't in newspapers there (including the Washington Post). Wasn't in the flyers (Radio Shack, Circuit City, etc). But it WAS on TV. WXII in Winston Salem, NC had it on their local news several times yesterday. Yep. That's TV alright. Great theory, 700. But I guess in your world, saying something makes it so.

Prove it ! :D I don't believe you, anyway - funny, it hasn't been on TV in the Wash., D.C area. Again, you are very good at obfuscating issues - more babbling ! :D Your on-going hostility towards me, just lets me know, you are feeling more-and more on the defensive.
 
No, you're right 700. It's not self-important of you at all to think that I obsess over you day and night. Why, I lie awake at night and think about how badly I'm being beaten in the clever-banter department by that oh-so-wise 700. Of course I always come up short (just ask my wife. But that's another matter).

Oh, the sleep I lose over you, 700...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
