RE: Interesting Letter to the Editor in WSJ



I think the major gripe is with the projection TVs.  The intensity levels
are so high that stationary images like the logos could be burnt into the
CRT.  Game console manuals warn that such units shouldn't be used with
projection sets for that reason.

FROM ORIGINAL MESSAGE

" didn't mention that many of
      the persistent color logos are burning themselves
      permanently into some very expensive TV
      screens. Fox News has been threatened with
      lawsuits by TV owners who now have a permanent
      'Fox' logo burned into their screens.
      Discovery Channel, the History Channel and
      many others have these persistent, garish,
      distracting and potentially destructive color
      logos on-screen during much of their programming.
      We are under siege.  (End of Letter)
Has anybody out there noticed what he's talking about
on his or her TV?  Is Rhodes just blowing smoke to see his name in the
paper?  I await observations by the
technological gurus who inhabit this site.
