    A wonderful idea for a quick history lesson.

    Whoever came up with the idea for this program...my hat's off. I wonder if this program has been saved for DVD for re-airing in the year 2076?? I probably won't be around by then, but it's a neat way to learn without getting bored with our nations history.
