The Neilsen people called me late last night wanting me to be one of their Familes. The woman calling had a lovely alto voice; I could tell she was an actress of sorts and wasn't often hung up on. Everyone wants be a Neilsen family. So I let her explain about the booklet. Then she got to the first question. "How many televisons do you have in your home?"

"Zero," I proudly replied.

I could hear the laughter in her voice. "Unfortunately, sir, yoiu do need a television to participate in our survey."

"So I expected."

"Thank you for your time and have a good evening."

"Good night."
