[AT] A wasteland on TV

[Gilbert Schwartz]

 Right Jim,  you pay for a couple of hundred channels to get the two or
three you really want. Right now I don't think we can get any of the locals
without having the basic cable too, and with the attic antenna we could only
get two locals. It's all a mess and obviously designed to cause you to buy
stuff you really don't want. Gil
