don't hang it over the mantle - your fireplace / mantle is a feature in itself - although a tv is pretty much part of a family's daily life these days I hate having it as the central feature of a room. perhaps reposition your room so it can be on a side wall or somewhere - keep your mantle for a beautiful mirror, artwork, and maybe candles or decorative items
( i don't think rednecks have plasma tv's do they?)

Pioneer is at the top. The 50" PRO-111FD is generally seen by the professionals as the best TV you can get. It's the TV you compare all others too. The Pioneer 5020FD is a step down, but still a great TV. Panasonic makes some great plasmas, especially the 800U. I was shopping for TVs last month. I am both poor and a cheapskate, so I went with the Samsung PN50A550. It's the #1 50" plasma according to Consumer Reports. They base this not just on picture quality but value for your money. CNET also rates it as "Excellent", although a bit lower on the list than those I mention above. It was going for almost half the price as the others too, but the CR rating put it in pretty high demand now so the price is a bit higher. You should know that the 2009 models have begun to roll out. You'll probably pay a bit more for them, but they can lower the price of last year's models. Pioneer is backing out of the plasma market, but Samsung and Panasonic are coming out with some plasmas that are supposedly better than last year. However, I have yet to see reviews for any of the higher models.

Put ot where you want but, read the instructions for the TV. Most state that the best viewing is with the TV 15 degrees or less up from the seating height.

Who cares? It's your house and your TV. The nicest thing about homeownership is the freedom to do what you like, not what someone else does.

Not necessarily. I don't think that is an ideal location for watching TV though.
