It claims to be done.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

We won't hear from Charlie.

He'll be on cloud #9.

Excellent stuff, Min! I'm about to watch it one more time to let all the data sink in. You say this is going to be a weekly series? :shock:

Not yet Charlie since I learned my lesson on the last download. I started the download when I went to bed and it was finished about three hours later. Hopefully, I'll get to review it tonight after returning home from a full day of annoying people at work (I take my job seriously). :D

"Naked Science" seems to be weekly.....they cover a lot of subjects, though.

I watched it tonight. They kept the presentation conservative by only going back 40,000 years and I was surprised they didn't mention Al Goodyear's Topper site. Nice presentation of material, though. All the while screaming THE CLOVIS BIG-HUNTER THEORY IS DEAD!!!! :twisted:

Yeah, I think they did a nice job. Jim Adovasio got a lot of coverage. His forensics stuff is cool. 8) Topper probably wasn't talked about because Al hasn't published a formal report yet...but then again, there hasn't been a formal report published on Gault? :?

The other point that the narrator made consistently is that these people were technologically smart and sophisticated. The comments on the older set of skulls versus newer sets was also interesting ... conflict. I have seen reference to that in South America also. More recent immigrants arrive and decimate the existing population (whether by disease, war or both). However, there doesn't seem to be much inter-breeding, if any at all. :shock:

Ok, where is this "naked science" program? I haven't seen it advertised on any of the "good" channels that we get here. And, how come you are all having such time issues with loading it? do you have DSL or Broadband or are you all on dialup? I want to see this thing, but am not as patient as the rest of you.

It was on National Geographic.

I can e-mail it to you. Send a PM with an e-mail addy.
