The End Is Nye

A lot of the disaster scenarios that you discuss involve earthquakes. Please note that the Richter Scale became obsolete in the 1970's. It gives unreliable results above a 6.0. The currently used scale is the Moment Magnitude Scale.

Even though the popular press likes to throw around the term "Richer Scale" concerning earthquakes, remember these people are generally uneducated in science and too lazy to check their facts. Quite frankly, old boy, I expected better from you and I'm not a Geophysics expert either.

Remember there are a lot of us "baby boomers" out there who studied a lot of really hard science in the 60's and 70's and mistakes like these stick out like a sore thumb and undercut your believability.

So it's Bill Nye, what's not to like. Also we have seen some of the worst hurricanes and aftermath in the U. S. so he's right to review this and see what we can do better. I'm watching this after Hurricane Ian hit Florida and caused catastrophic billion-dollar damage. One area of Florida that didn't get damaged and that was because they prepared for hurricanes and engineered their community with this in mind was Babcock Ranch. Plus I've always liked movies like this, so it's my kind of genre. I totally recommend watching this. Of course they cover more than hurricanes and I'm looking forward to watching the other episodes.

I'm from the Mr. Wizard generation, so never watched Bill Nye the Science Guy program.

I was taught the history and science of previous natural disasters. My parents , both living in the plains during the dustbowl/depression days. Told their experience of that time period. Dad always planted a garden to help sustain our food supply.

Now I'm watching an update of history, plus positive answers to stop them.

Definitely recommend to everyone. Take away whatever. Just view with an open mind and a curiosity to stop natural disasters.

Prevention is always cheaper than catastrophe. At what point do we have to reach before we listen and act?

Science can be entertaining. If we are forward thinking and not get stuck in the past we can thrive, become profitable, and help the world. Yes, invest in future science. Because denying facts only leads to being stuck in a narrow existence of unsustainable acts. For example combustion engines will be collector's items for you grandkids, the same way horse and buggy transportation was for your great grandparents. As science takes us back into space on vehicles and machines are needed on the moon and Mars, electric engines or alternative power sources are the only option. Without an atmosphere, a combustion engine will not work.

This show gave me ideas for future investments in myself and businesses.

At First i thought Nye who? Then i watched the Trailer and thought looks entertaining. So i started to google/search about the Show and found Seth MacFarlane has his Fingers in it which is a Plus in my Book.

Informations about Bill Nye,for me a unkown Person because i live in different Country(Europe,hihihi), was also interesting: Nye worked as an engineer for the Boeing Corporation and Sundstrand Data Control near Seattle. At Boeing, he invented a Hydraulic Resonance Suppressor Tube used on Boeing 747 airplanes. He applied four times, unsuccessfully, for NASA's astronaut training program.

SO he was/is a legit Engineer at least it seems so(plus one INVENTION),but made a career-change into Comedy later in his life.👍

Damn i thought to myself,give´em a Try for Sure.

And not surprisingly it is very entertaining.
