stuff to counter Gleason's usual line of BS

I had a thought (scary, ain't it). What's going to happen in the event of a
natural disaster/other large scale event when most of the radios in the
country are totally worthless? Digital will NEVER have total penetration the
way analog now does. Not on TV, not on the radio. Phase shifts on AM will
affect digital just as they do analog, except that the signal will be lost
entirely during those phase shifts, rather than just becoming more difficult
to listen to. FM picket-fencing in metro areas will render digital
unlistenable in many areas while driving.
