Change this to "can be" instead of "is" and we agree.

No, I talk back to the TV because I like to argue
......errrr...express myself <grin>.  I argue with trails,
with trees and streams and with dogs and cats and
with the universe.
TV doesn't get a pass <VVBG>

My response is personal because I use my
personal experiences to evaluate situations.
I find it preferable to extrapolating onto others
by making universal statements as to what they
can or cannot resist.   Your passion on the subject,
exemplified by your earlier post suggests you have
more invested in the issue than I.
