Letterbox bulls**t.. yes indeed, ANNOYING!!!! I spent my youth looking at test patterns and adjusting my sets to as near perfect linearity as I could (yeah, the pattern's linearity varied from station to station... go figure, but that's another story...) and NOW all I see is fat short people and size changes as the camera pans from side to side....!!!! I explain to people that they can eliminate that by simply adjusting the aspect ratio, but the comments are always the same... "I can't stand to have the heads cut off!!!" Personally, I'll lose the tops of heads momentarily to lose the dam cockamayme letterbox...!!! What say thee??
