I used to work at a TV station and we never did anything to alter the sound of any of the programming or commercials. I am sure that almost all other broadcasters have the same policy. In fact the sound Can't be louder because of the technology, if the audio is too loud the audio will become distorted or unlistionable.
The problem actually occurs when the commercial is edited down during filming and production. This is where the sound is Compressed which essentially brings all of the Lower volume portions of the sound Up to much higher volumes often equaling the the Higher volume portions of the sound. This is not really any louder. The highest levels are not affected so it's not actually louder, but since the lower volumes have been pumped up, it appears to be louder.
The summery here is that, it's not a problem with the Broadcasters, the problem is with the Advertisers. The ability for a broadcaster to detect and correct this problem would be huge if not impossible. I can understand why the FCC gave up on it the first time.
The summery states a failure rate of 1:129, but I thought we lost 2 shuttles in the last 129 flights. Doesn't that make the failure rate at 2:129 or 1:65 ?
The Space & Rocket center in Huntsville is billed as "Earths Largest Space Museum"
There is even a full sized shuttle on display in it's Launch Ready configuration.
anything launched from the moon would be built here on earth, then flown to the moon and relaunched from there. if it was me, I would launch the thing from the earth and skip the 'launch from the moon' step.
Well , if a quake is produced Sooner than it would have occurred naturally, then the intensity won't as strong since stresses would be released before they could build up to be stronger.

>Mass production decreases both the cost and time of making a specific product
Sounds like Nintendo could make some pretty nifty scientific instruments just my making small changes to the Wiimotes and mass producing them.
When they make the commercial, can't they just talk quieter ?
Some commercials are silent
it makes you look at the TV to see what is wrong with it . . .

That was too fast . . .
I think they should use more balloons to make it harder
99 Red Balloons would have been better

All the news is about Twitter because Twitter is the source of the news now. So, without a working Twitter...it has become the news.
I was thinking "The Shit" would be a more appropriate Slang Name.

I would think it would be self cleaning, wouldn't the laser keep all the crap burned off of the lens ?
Oh, Great . . .

So . . . The lost tapes aren't really lost, they are up on the moon waiting to be rewound and copied to a DVD disc.
