ANOTHER BLAST FROM THE PAST

Came across a videotape that had the films "Castaway" and "Swordfish" on it. After that, there was a couple hours of programming from the Canadian Discovery Channel from the late summer of 2002.

First, there was a program that was part of Megabeasts Week, about what caused the mass extinction that killed off the giant leamer, giant ground sloth, etc. After that, there was a program called "Storm Warnings", about people being caught in deadly storms, including storms at sea, tornadoes, hurricanes, and the like. After that, there was a few minutes of "Summer At Discovery" hosted by former Global News anchor Jane Gilbert. Proves commercial-produced educational television can still be well done at times.
