 Dibbler Sponsor   |  Re: planet earth i watched 2 hours of the series tonight and i agree with the very nicey 'great cinematography' sentiment. the science part however is a vexing mixture of old theory, new theory, and flat out wrong information. on the old theory >> when talking about limestone caves they laid all the formation to acid rainwater, wheras recent studies show that acid excreting bacteria do a considerable amount of the 'excavating'. on the new theory (or at least i never heard this) >> that the monoliths used in the construction of stonehenge came as eratics transported by glaciers and not hauled from wales by people. on the flat out wrong >> in the discussion of coreolis and winds at the equator, the graphic illustrating earth's rotation was rotating clockwise.  i give it about a 73*  *jamie brockett- Talkin' Green Beret New Super Yellow Hydraulic Banana Teeny Bopper Blues ----------------  Who doesn't want to use words that will stun people into silence? ~ShaYou gonna eat that?
