How ironic? From our ‘friends’ at Comcast,
“On Wednesday, November 9 at 2 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time), FEMA and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will conduct the nation’s first ever Emergency Alert System (EAS) test. . . This test . . . will be seen on all local, cable, and satellite TV stations across the country, as well as radio. Your programming will be temporarily interrupted. While we do not anticipate an interruption in your service, in some rare cases, you may need to: Power-cycle your cable box by unplugging the power cord from the outlet” So now, thanks to “homeland security,” we have a system just like Adam Sutler’s.
