I presume you are referring to NBC's tape delay? That's only for the evening prime-time show, as far as I know. But the live coverage for many of the events is at hours which are not PDT-friendly. In any case, I can't watch everything in real time - that's why I have TiVos. The broadcasts may be live, but there are multiple channels of coverage. Even ignoring some of the streams, there are times when I'm recording three events at once. I do avoid threads with the words "Olympics" in them until I'm caught up for the day (which, often, isn't until midnight, if then). But even though we are both working from home there are times when either my wife or I can't watch television, and we seem to be averaging more than 20 hours of recorded coverage a day. Much of it will be skipped over (I'm not a big fan of beach volleyball, or field hockey). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
