Well to be honest you don't have to be. What am I talking about? Why the conversion to digital tv. Today was supposed to be the day that tv stations were to stop transmitting analog signals and convert to digital. But the government has determined that people aren't ready. Never mind that we have been subjected to crawls, special programs and numerous newscasts about this very subject for the past several months. Because 5.1% of households are unprepared for the conversion we all must wait until June 12. Whatever happened to personal responsibility and suffering the consequences of said behavior? No wonder people are looking to the government to take care of them. They sure can't take care of themselves.
I digress. Some stations here in Pittsburgh have said, "too bad we are going through with the original date". Good for them.
My not that much sister sent this video to me some time ago and I have been saving it for this occasion. In case you are one of the unprepared here is a video which will explain everything you need to know so you too can receive digital signals on your tv. Just remember you only have until June 12.
