Ben, I agree! Pipick, far far more often than not, your posts offer little substance. It's not that I don't invite other opinions than my own into any discussion. In fact, I encourage quite the opposite. I want to hear the opposite point of view. But points of view should be based on the premise that the facts and arguments are presented in an intelligent manner. This is where your ongoing short coming has been. Your opinions are mostly unsubstantiated and your statements of facts are often simply wrong.

For example: In your last statement you said that there is no reference to Sharp using TVL's technology in televisions at all.

Well how about this quote from TVL's press release Feb 2 1999.

<<<Sharp Corporation of Japan has signed a letter of intent to licence Tri-Vision's patented, flexible V-gis v-chip technology for use in new televisions>>>

I'm not sure Pipick, but that last word kinda looks like "televisions" to me! You see, when you make silly statements that are so obviously full of holes, it can't help but make people wonder.

So I add my voice Pipick. Answer Ben's questions, each and every one of them in a well thought and intelligent manner. I promise we will listen. ....And if you can't...better off to say nothing at all.

Know too that each time you continue on in your present manner, that you only really serve to diminish your own voice here on this thread. Without doubt, there are many who simply press "next" already!

Regards,

Kevin

Ben my friend, READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUALS. Try the Panasonic line first, then teh RCA line, then the Sharp line, now the Sony line of TV's. They ALL work by putting in a PIN code which will block out the single ratings system employed here in the USA. You can adjust the level that you want to be filtered by using the PIN. Try any Sears store or Circuit City store. Look I'm not saying that you guys won't have your day. I hope you do. It's just all hype right now.
