Even without a TV and just those few things I mentioned above, I still feel that my life is far too full of time wasting electronic entertainment.

I think TV has the potential to be, and often is, extremely educational. People (not Warbler) often acuse me of being smart and well educated. Half (perhaps more) of what I know came from watching TV. And half of that was from the Simpsons- one of the most educational shows I have ever watched... really puts Sesame Street to shame.
