Another Good Reason To Stop Watching Television

http://bit.ly/ssUSjH

At about 2PM EST Wednesday, November 9, our televisions and radios will stop doing whatever they were doing, and do something else. What will it look and sound like if it's working correctly? Well, I'm not sure, and that's not because I neglected to read the description:

What will people hear and see during the test?

On November 9, the public will hear a message indicating that “This is a test.” The audio message will be the same for both radio and television. However, the image on the screen and the text/crawl at the top of television screen may not be the same for all viewers. When the EAS test is over, regular programming will resume.

Announcing First Nationwide EAS Test

There you are then. You've been warned. Now carry on.

Now cross referenced and linked by bit.ly as Blogger or at least "blog this" seems to be a solely Chrome thing. "Don't be evil" my patootie.
