I've always regarded the History Channel as the Hitler Channel, but lately it has been the Doom Channel. "Crude," and "How the Earth Was Made" were on back to back the other night, and I stayed up late to watch both because I couldn't turn it off. All kinds of mass extinctions happening. Both shows were really good. Crude did not beat around the bush like I expected, and I appreciated that. The basic message was we're screwed with crude. And How the Earth Was Made I could watch several more times easy.

Thanks for the book recommendations, Shannon. I will check them out.

Just finished this book, and I need a few days more to digest everything. There is a LOT of information here. NY inundated with water very quickly. Cats will be fine, dogs not so much. Birds are up against it. Camels and horses originate from the Americas. Mega fauna - maga cool. 20 foot giant sloths! Wouldn't that be something to see? Plastic - really bad shit. Somehow The History Channel's Life After People left out plastic. How do you miss that?

Has any one mentioned "They Live?" A hokey B-movie with Rowdy Roddy Piper. Pretty cheezy, but good plot, good fun.
