Subject: RE: BS: Alternative to Science??
thank you, Lighter for that fine summary.

I will occasionally watch shows on the History Channel or Discovery on interesting topics... but get really annoyed with the phoney "drama" they insist on adding... as if this is the "entertainment factor" that needs to be added to "dry facts". yuck!

And when they finally get to their conclusion... you can practically hear the drumroll as they "spring" it on you. They drag out 15 minutes of info into an hour's format. And then we wonder why the general public has no clue about what constitutes a scientific investigation. sigh...
