I sat down for a lengthy chat on Wednesday afternoon with Rep. Rick Boucher, D-Va., -- a longtime proponent of technological innovation and one of Capitol Hill's best known champions of "fair use" of copyrighted content.

When I walked into his office, I quickly scanned the room for the latest, greatest gadgetry. A giant, wall-mounted flat panel Samsung caught my eye and so I inquired about it. "That’s an analog television," admitted Boucher, who has been keeping a close watch over preparations for the nation's digital TV transition next February. He said he got the TV four years ago and "it's on the edge of obsolescence."

"It's for sale if you want to buy it," Boucher joked. "Does it include the converter box?" I shot back. We laughed and the interview commenced. Oh, and follow the jump for a photo of what I found in his office waiting area that shows his commitment to "fair use" isn't just talk.
