I wasn't watching it, I was watching Cory Doctorow on BookTV (CSpan2). But I saw your post and switched over - caught the last few minutes. I've seen that Twilight Zone episode before, sometime in the past year or so.

Rod Serling's spoken epilogue is definitely chilling.

But out of all the Twilight Zone episodes I've watch. This one is the most horrifying and truthful one

I don't have cable, but I found it on Hulu and watched. Wow, that episode (written by Rod Serling) really speaks to us now.
