RE: Prehistoric New York on Discovery

[Jane P Davidson <jdhexen@unr.edu>]

I saw it,  it was a little ill-edited I thought,  kept flipping back and forth 
through various time periods, which I thought was a little confusing to those 
who might not have a handy geological time scale.   It is interesting in terms 
of its geology;  better there, I thought than its paleontology,  although the 
scientists who take part did a good job all around, geologists or 
paleontologists.   Jane Davidson

Did anyone catch it? I saw very little press for this ahead of time, and
missed it.

This is actually the first in a series (the rest of which will be on next
year), focusing on different US cities in the past.
