Isn't there a town somewhere in Connecticut that doesn't have ABSOLUTELY
ANY over-the-air TV reception?  It's somewhere up in, or between,  some 
mountains.

I remember reading in the New York Times (must have been like 5 years ago)  
that they were going to PROBABLY get cable TV sometime later that year or
next year.  A few people in the town did have sattelite dishes.

What struck me was that the town did have a very high literacy rate...and 
the kids there really were pretty indifferent towards TV finally coming 
into town.
