I found a great series on the Revolutionary War on the Military channel this evening. Told me a few things I hadn't known. It's narrated by Charles Kuralt and is excellently done.

History Channel and National Geographic are excellent channels. Watched a documentary on NG about modern warships, Independence and Freedom.

What is the title? I don't have cable or any tv now. Our library is very good about ordering from suggestions though.
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as “bad luck.” - Robert Heinlein

I set that up to record the other day. I'm glad to hear it's well done.

In fact , much to my dismay, it cuts too deeply into my allotted time for reading!!-Tyr

Another good one from the history channel was "How the States were Made"
It was well put together, fun and lots of interesting info.
My Oath did not Retire
Trigg. My wife and I have been watching that whole series. "How the states got their names" is also a good series.
Education is plentiful on the History Channel, and the Military Channel seems to have been aiming toward more Hitler stuff. Repeat after repeat.
