Starting tomorrow, through next Thursday, I'm part of the statistical sample that submits data for the "Nielsen Rating." Enclosed with the paper diaries (one for each TV screen in the house) were two crisp $1 bills, which must be what they figure it's worth.

So, if any of you have a favorite broadcast or cable show that needs ratings help, send your nominee's name, channel and air time on the back of another $1 bill.
