Doesn't digital take a lot less power to transmit?  Their costs may be
higher, but not much higher (unless they are in California).

Did they mandate which side of the road we had to drive on?

A conversion like this can not be drawn out.  One of the things that 
surprises me is the lack of support from the TV stations.  While they 
are broadcasting digital and analog their power bills have to be a lot 
higher.  I would think they would want to turn off one of the
transmitters.
