Description and/or Review:
MEMBER REVIEW: Remember those science films you watched in grade and high school? They were usually one subject and earnestly, if ponderously narrated. This DVD will bring you back to those days. It contains 2 of these films-one dated 1977 is about Hawaiian active volcano (hint, it is not Kilauea), and the other dated 1978 is about fossils around the US in general, and the exciting revelation that oil and coal come from ancient organisms and can be called "fossil fuels". Needless to say, there is little that is new or exciting here. They are proud of a diorama of a fossil marine reef. That is how cutting edge it is. If you are looking for something exciting, pass this DVD by. If you want nostalgia, and to see just how far geology has come in the past 40 years, this one is for you.
