I gotta agree that this guy's a nut case, but I'll probably still watch, if only so I can ridicule him in a more informed manner.

well i am still interested as i would like to know what he is saying and how he is saying it. given what little that blurb offered, i dread to see what he has concluded or hypothesized or what 'evidence' he relies upon or ignores but i need to see it for myself.

thanks if you can accomaodate .

Admit it, Arch....you still haven't recovered from the "Israelites in Athens" segment, have you? Don't worry....I haven't either.

For reference, here is a list of the upcoming broadcasts and the titles. Some of them may be of particular interest to you.

HISI Monday, October 30 11:30 PM Who Invented the Alphabet?
HISI Tuesday, October 31 7:00 PM Jerusalem and the Black Prince
HISI Tuesday, October 31 7:30 PM What Killed Herod?

HISI Wednesday, November 8 6:00 PM True Blue
HISI Wednesday, November 8 6:30 PM Return of the Hilazon

Tonight's broadcasts actually interfere with a hockey game but I should be able to get one before and catch the second one, after the game. These appear to be half-hour segments which gives me an idea....(always dangerous, I know.)

I have a program called DVD Shrink which will let me edit out the opening titles, credits and commercials. Doing that should result in a file which is less than one gig. There is a posting service called Badongo.com which hosts files up to a 1 gig limit. So.....if I can figure out how to convert it to a Mpeg file so you can download it and play it OR if you get DVD shrink yourself...it's a free program... I could post the .iso files and you could just download them and burn them to a DVD-RW yourself?

I'm not sure what your capabilities are there but it would be a hell of a lot quicker than snail mail.

Arch...check you PMs...I don't want to bore everyone else with this.

Can't wait to see the credits. Seems to me that I remember a program by this name several years ago. So want to know if they are new or that someone found them lying around in the dusty file room and decided to rerun them.

I don't think that HI ever gets first run shows.

actually interfere with a hockey game

please don't tell me you are a hockey fan??!! i have been a maple leaf fan for almost 50 years and now this bit of news will make me have to give up the game. (chuckle)

Leafs?

Post by **Minimalist** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 7:41 pm

Um...well the first one on the Philistines was okay, I guess. He interviews archaeologists working on Philistine sites and they treat him in roughly the same way you'd talk to a wise-ass child who needs a good smack in the head.

Post by **Minimalist** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 7:48 pm

Okay...in the second one he goes off the deep end.

Leafs?

Wait till the second one where he attributes the alphabet to Jewish Slaves who escaped during the Exodus!

Oh, well....hockey time. I'm going to try to forget Jacobovici for a while.

No, no. I'm not creative enough to invent that.

They did win it in 1994....

I never realized you were old enough to remember the six team league. [/b]
