Welcome, Economist. Great film, not to mention the (Phillip Glass) soundtrack is amazing (as are most of his). Wish I still remembered all the lessons...

Watched Enron and Why We Fight today. Loved WWF, but didn't really like the tone of the Enron documentary. A little too heavy on the humor/entertainment for me... Still interesting, especially since I basically ignored it at the time.

BBC Horizons, most of them. Long time since I saw most of them, so from memory:

The homeopathy test
Parallel universes
The watchmaker
Cold Fusion

But I devoured them all. Very, very good series of documentaries.

Since having threads about British fascists is apparently no longer allowed, I'll post this here instead. This documentary is hosted by someone who could charitably be described as an annoying git, but comes out of it with as much of my respect as I could possibly give. Anyone who isn't a Nazi will get a nice warm glow from this documentary.
