-=PCTechTalk=- Jerk at Circuit City

I asked a sales clerk what the difference was between "static contrast 
ratio" and "dynamic contrast ratio".  He replied they are the exact same 
thing.  When I tried to get clarification (after all the words static and 
dynamic are diametrically opposed to each other) he started walking away and 
said "you asked a question, I answered it.  I don't need to be educated by 
you".  I promptly (and loudly) replied "and I don't have to buy anything at 
CC either" and immediately went to the manager on duty.  He didn't know the 
difference either.

A little research got me an answer: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_ratio#Contrast_ratio_in_a_real_room

Best I can tell is it doesn't matter which ratio you look at as long as you 
compare dynamic to dynamic and static to static.  And the higher the number 
the better.
