I, for one, have a DVR and typically I wouldn't even bother fast forwarding through commercials. Yet any time I'm watching the Sci Fi Network for any reason (I refuse to call it SyFy) I'm quite cautious to fast forward through each and every commercial as they tend to be incredibly loud. Plus there's an all important truism. One who has intentionally listened to something, especially if they went to great lengths to do so, will likely understand and retain what was told to them with much more clarity than if he's shouted at unwillingly.Smokachunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536546398582920167.post-19416564677720237282009-06-20T05:34:37.373-07:002009-06-20T05:34:37.373-07:00You speak the truth, Mr. T.

I didn't know that.<br /><br />As for commercials, I am told they make them loud so you can hear them from the kitchen (where you repair to get a beverage/make a sandwich during the commercial).Byte for Bitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578741091784316555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536546398582920167.post-39245513196660413242009-06-19T10:33:18.385-07:002009-06-19T10:33:18.385-07:00You are absolutely correct
