Roger that. I USED to think CNBC was pretty indispensable as background throughout my trading day and research afternoons/evenings.

But thanks primarily to Audi, I've kicked the habit. Oh, I click on every now and then, but my phone, the net and occasional KWHY do everything I need.

primary collateral loss: no Insana and gain: no Pisani (I do try to catch Squawk)

I wonder how many at CNBC would still work there if they had to listen to (or scrammble for the remote at) every commercial? And I wonder how many others in the industry also find themselves reclaiming their thalamo-cortical circuits?
