And what are you doing? Desperately trying to justify the money you wasted on a 50" TV when you realized that it's still the same crap on TV.
Its not wasted if you are getting the enjoyment you expected from it. I wasted no money on my tv. I get all of the value I expected from it. From hi-def viewing of nature shows and movies, to my XBox 360 and hi-def games on my 60" HD LCD tv. All of it worth the money to me. Good luck trying to win your argument here.
This statement was never false.

SDTV is not suffient
Sure it is. You can see the picture, you can see what's happening and you can hear the dialog. I watch TV for the content, not so I can sweat over the picture quality. HDTV doesn't make crap films any better. It doesn't improve lousy plots and inane dialog. It's not about price, it's about value. The extra money for HD doesn't give enough back unless you count pathetic bragging rights amongst other audio/visual geeks. It's a small increase in picture quality, not a quantum leap like B&W to color. And yes, my statistic was made up. I wouldn't think anybody would be dumb enough to think otherwise.

Exactly, and I get far more value out of my Hi-def experience than I do from any other TV experience to date.

I find your zealotry amusing.
I find your zealotry (anti-hd) even more amusing.
