Both programmes look interesting, but I will be at the London meet
tonight, and what do you think will happen when Tivo asks SWMBO if
she wants to change channels (no doubt from LAme Accademy or similar)
to record these? Of course I could set the video, or I could change
then channel remotely from the pub over the internet (anyone bringing
a PDA with remote access?) which would cause SWMBO to think the Tivo
was busted and she might then switch to the signal from the VCR
instead :-)

Any other hints on using automation to outsmart SWMBO would be most
welcome ;-)

Please note that I value my testicles too much to actually try this,
but it is an interesting theoretcial discussion.
