Also: YOU'RE DOING IT ALL WRONG!    The whole point of this thread is to ask stupid questions, and give stupid (non-)answers!

Geeze, asking an intelligent question in this thread...

Farnsworth invented electronic television, those nice folks at RCA sent Vladimir Zworkin to steal the inventors ideas and by using the money and political influence managed to patent Farnsworths system before he could.  Think about that next time you tune in NBC.

[Reply #555 on:]

By the way, it was RCA's stolen version of television that was displayed at the worlds fair

Ever wonder why the channels start at 2 instead of 1? In 1946 the geniuses at the FCC decided that there would never be a need for all 13 channels that had been alocated for TV broadcasting so they took channel 1 and created citizens band radio

Hey, I'm new and a little lost

[Reply #558 on:]

Bobbot, friend, palm bruddah! You’re new.
I suggest (STRENUOUSLY!) you take a moment to peruse the FAQ’s, here, and  here.
One thing that is particularly frowned upon for reasons of bandwidth is multiple posting, as you have done above.

Oh.

Are those my claws in your throat?
[*Heh*]
Sorry about that... Um... Have a bandaid?
