I woke up early this morning, and am watching the NY Yankees vs. Yomiuri Giants exhibition game, live from Tokyo, Japan.
It's amazing how far technology has come, if you think about it. The game is about 5000 miles away or more, and there wasn't even any doubt in my mind that it'd be on TV, live, here in the states. It was just taken for granted that it'd be on.
If you consider that worldwide televised coverage of the Olympics only began in 1960, we've come a long way in a fairly short period of time.
