WTF?  What planet are these guys on?

I was only joking about cable directionality - it has come up before
regarding speaker cables and laughed down - how can an alternating signal
possibly propogate along a directional cable?

Surely bi-directional is synonymous with uni-directional anyway.  And you
trust these people to install cable into your home?
