Unless your TV doesn't have any way of changing channels, and you were leaving it on ABC the rest of the time just so you could watch TP, how are you going to convince them that you're going to watch it less now than you did with TP, with the obvious exception of that one hour a week. Were you watching the other shows because you thought ABC was so great to give you TP? TV ratings points are not based on how many people watch a station in a given week, they are based on the specific time slot. -- Bill rubin@watson.ibm.com
