I also request TVs to be turned off. Heh! We may be kindred souls, Kat.

I want to get one of those remote things that you can quietly turn all the TVs off with in stores and restaurants, and no one knows who did it. ;-) (Anyway, they usually don't even notice when it stops babbling.) I always turn off the TV at the waiting area in my local car dealership and at Canadian tire...providing no one is sitting there already and deliberately watching the stupid thing, that is.
