Yes!  I grew up without TV.  There is still no TV in my parents house.
I do not own a TV.  
	(15min of writting and erasing)
I was going to write a coherent explanation of why I find life without
TV much nicer than with, but it is more effort than it is worth.
Suffice it to say that except for an occasional offering, I find life
as portrayed on the tube at odds with the way want to live my life.
    Should I ever raise children I hope I will provide them with more
interesting ways to grow up then just watching TV.
