VHF, we hardly knew ye

I was surfing TV today and I accidentally hit the "Channel Up" button, which normally goes to analog TV (you know, channels 2, 4, 5 etc). Instead of a fuzzy, snowy image with no sound, which I usually get, there was just -- blackness.

Strange, to think that for the first time in my life, waves of frequency-modulated analog NTSC are not coursing through my veins at frequencies of 50 to 150 megaherz, filled to the brim with the one-way media firehose we used to call the 'boob tube'.

At least I still have youtube.
