truly brilliant.. but not, perhaps, as evil as it could be:


----  webtv.html  ----

<img
    src    = "black_box.gif"
    align  = "right"
    width  = "120"
    height = "240"
>
<font size="+3">
THIS SITE MAY NOT DISPLAY PROPERLY ON SOME WEB TV PLATFORMS.
<p>
PLEASE ADJUST THE HORIZONTAL CONTROL OF YOUR TELEVISION
UNTIL THE TARGET IS CENTERED ON YOUR SCREEN, THEN ADJUST
YOUR CONTRAST UNTIL THE CIRCLE INSIDE THE SQUARE IS JUST
VISIBLE.

given A) the way follow technical instructions blindly (defined as "dummy
mode" in _The Bastard Bible_), and B) the way TV acts like a visual blend
of thorazine and demerol, i don't even want to imagine the number of hours
people would waste screwing up their TV settings.
