[Geysers] BBC Supervolcano

[Tricia]

Hello

We do not usually comment because we are so far away that nothing we say is
relevant!  However we thought we should say something about the BBC2
programme.  There was indeed a programme about  "Supervolcanoes".  But it
was aired in February 2000 and is definitely not the same programme that
they were filming in Yellowstone recently.  The BBC were going to show a
docudrama about the volcano in Yellowstone and there were due to be two
accompanying programmes on BBC.  But they have postponed the showing of
these programmes following the Tsunami disaster on 26th December 2004.  They
did indicate that the programmes would be shown but did not give a date.

I have obviously no idea what will be aired on the Discovery Channel in
April but if there is only one programme being shown it may be the older
one.

Best wishes

Tricia Miller

Greetings fellow Gazers! 

I went searching for the air date of BBC's program "Supervolcano" which was
discussed earlier.   It had aired on BBC Two which I do not get through Dish
Network.  I just heard back from BBC and it will air on the Discovery
Channel in April.  They do not have a set date as yet.

Best, 

Tamsen

"If the Grand Canon of the Yellowstone 
is one of the crowning works of Nature, 
so is the Grand Canon Hotel, set out here 
many long miles from railway transportation, 
one of the crowning works of man.  
For here, where bear and elk and deer 
roam at will, where the face of Nature 
has not been changed by human hands, 
where the wild noises of the forest are 
heard at night, has been built one of the 
magnificent public houses of the world." 

--Gerrit Fort, 1912 
     The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, p. 29
