At least in my market (where two of five stations will be changing 
channels on transition day), there will be a massive media blitz 
reminding people to rescan when they wake up on 2/18/09.

We've mentioned this in our WXXI DTV shows, but it would be pointless to 
try to hammer people with it now...we'll remind them again when it gets 
closer. (And we're not even changing channels!)
