No, I was too old, and in the wrong branch. Dropping old TV

In fairness, it wasn't really your fault. If Blair had been our Prime
Minister at the time (perish the thought!), we would probably have
been implicated in it as well!

In all fairness it is/was our fault. Theoretically (in a democracy)
the people rule. We must really like the idea of war . . .

Your democracy is on a par with ours we elect the government to serve us as
our servants and then we do what we are told by them. (I do irony).

Video signals for NTSC, PAL, and SECAM television are transmitted on
AM carriers.

They are FM on analogue satellite.

I'd really like buy a TV with a FM-video receiver; I want to find out
what FM-video disturbances in the SHF [Super High Frequency ]
frequency-range look like. I am sick n' tired of AM video.

Buy an old analogue satellite receiver.

In practise the people rule just enough to stop them rioting etc, and no
more.

Our DMV will get you a voters registration card without proof of citizenship
but to renew my driver license, I had to provide my original social security
card.

How's that for irony?
