To say that the elderly will be "the most befuddled by the DTV switch" is ageism at it's worst. The elderly are just as intelligent as anyone else.
We are not talking intelligence here, It is about awareness. My dad will be 90 this year, and is perfectly coherent and very intelligent. But, I will guarantee if I asked him he would not remember the transition date, or what exactly it means for him. I think outreach to seniors will be very helpful.
