 I know plenty of TV haters.  That's okay.  :)
 
 But let me ask this.  As a camera op here in Hollywood, I consider
 myself a blue collar worker.  I'm a member of the International
 Cinematographer's Guild.  My grandfather was a tool and die maker; I
 consider my camera the equivalent of his tools.  Different era,
 different product, different unions.  Both skilled craftsmen.  So.  If
 you hated all cars, would you honestly feel that their design were the
 fault of the guys on those assembly lines?
