Hmm. You know what I was thinking when I read this one? Recycling
space currently used by a pri-10 programme, because a pri-1 program
needs it in a minute. That means that the unit wouldn't necessarily
need to allocate any space for the week's tv; it just snatches what it
needs from the teeming masses of Three's Company that She likes to tape
but never watch.

Bah, Bush will still win regardless.
