IF YOU HAVE AN HD TV SET, TO GET THE HD SIGNAL, YOU NEED A SET-TOP
BOX.     I  READ OVER THE WEEKEND THAT THERE IS A MOVE UNDERWAY
TO MAKE THESE BOXES MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT.     CURRENTLY, THE
BOXES (WHICH ARE ON 24 HOURS A DAY ) ARE USING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS....YES BILLIONS OF DOLLARS....WORTH OF ELECTRICITY EACH YEAR.    THINK ABOUT IT...A FEW YEARS AGO, THEY WERE NOT AROUND.
MAYBE WE SHOULD ALL TURN-IN OUR BOX AND LISTEN MORE TO RADIO.

THE IOWA HAWKEYE BASKETBALL TEAM MADE THE TOP 10 ON BOTH POLLS TODAY....FIRST TIME IN MANY YEARS.    GO HAWKS.

HAVE A GOOD WEEK.
