Yeah, we talked about this years ago. Most people have such poor eyesight that the higher resolution TVs don't give them a noticeably better picture at normal viewing distances unless it is a huge screen. The resolution of the rods and cones in your eyes, which are like pixels in a way, is poorer than the resolution on the tv.

One time my son and I pulled the couch right up to the tv, like 2-3 feet away, to watch a particulary cool NASA thing on PBS, and that was the first time I noticed the pixels watching something on my 720p TV (32").

The first and last time I did that was for Alice Cooper, about '73 I think.

This is from data 7 years old but it seemed to be a trend. If asked if the have had sexual intercourse, like the CDC and most polls do, the stats say teen sex is down. But digging deeper shows that "hooking up" is now popular, which can be anything from a goodnight kiss to anal and/or oral casual sex.

It's important to read the numbers and not just go by the pictures.

Amazon is not about profit, it's about growth.
