watching "Zero" today

kate of the kiosk's picture

Thus far, nothing really new here, but i'm only up to part 6 or 7.  am enjoying the expressive - almost lyrical - Italian style to documentary-making. so it was broadcast on Russian national television on 9/11? the obvious physical science of the towers construction and demolitions,  thermite + barium nitrate (extremely toxic stressed) + sulfa  = military grade thermate.  emphatically clear on these points. 

 

welcome home Cass!!

yeah, about the churches and cathedral spires. Le cathedral de Chartres and the "cult of Mary" was intense... but did love the French countryside, roads, and farms on the way.  we spent Easter Sunday marching up to Mont Martres...so many nice memories made in just one week (with 36 high-school students from NJ, no less!! picture getting that bunch on and off the trains and metro!!)
