This is, of course, old news to me, but I'm glad you posted it. What a great life he had. RIP.
Now this guy will be missed unlike the fishing show guy.

Except that probably more people knew who Captain Phil Harris was over Burbidge. Not that it is right. Just sayin'.

RIP

Totally depends on whether you are watching something like "Planet Earth" on Discovery HD or reruns of Jackass. 90% of the time that my TV is on, it is tuned to History Channel, National Geographic, Science Channel or Discovery. I've learned a hell of a lot more about geology, astronomy, physics, engineering, other cultures, etc. than I have thru school or reading books. That being said, I have absolutely nothing agianst reading a good book. I just get a kick out of TV snobs who can't appreciate embracing newer technology for educational purposes.
