Recently, I was called by them, and was asked what I was watching. I told them I wasn't watching anything. Her next question was how many televisions I had at home, and I told her none. She asked one?, and I told her none, zero, none at all. She then told me that she wasn't sure if she could go on with the survey, this hadn't happened to her before.
