traditional Nielson families

That's been bugging me recently. I'm hoping that they don't still rely on those boxes. Let's see, out of all the people that I've known in my entire life, I've only ever heard of one person who had a Nielson box (one of my college professors). Fortunately he was a cool guy with great taste, but it made me wonder what kind of information they can gather. I mean, you'd think I'd know of more than one person getting one.

Oh, and I love football. I just hated that instead of delaying the whole lineup, they always just skipped Futurama. They'd also play whatever crappy placeholding show was on between Simpsons and X-Files.

Ah, I remember that short period where Futurama, Simpsons, and X-Files were all on on the same night. I miss those days...
