I RECENTLY WATCHED A SHOW ON NATIONAL GREOGRAPHIC CHANNEL THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE SHED NEW LIGHT ON THE NOTORIOUS LINES OF THE NASCA PLAIN. AS USUAL, I ALWAYS GO INTO THESE SHOWS GIVING THEM THE BENEFIT OF DOUBT AND HOPE THEY WILL ACTAULLY CARRYOUT WHAT THEY ADVERTISE THEY WILL DO. IN SIMILAR STYLE SHOWS, MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, WHEN THE END OF THE PROGRAM COMES I AM LEFT DISAPPOINTED WANTING MORE AND THINKING THAT SOMEONE WASTED ALOT OF MONEY ON A SHOW THAT GIVES VERY LITTLE INSIGHT (THEN AGAIN IT IS TV).
AFTER WATCHING THE PROGRAM ON THE NASCA LINES, MUCH TO MY DISMAY I WAS LEFT WITH THAT SAME FEELING. THE SHOW WAS MORE ABOUT CONJECTURE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, AND WROUGHT WITH DRAMATICAL REINACTMENTS BASED ON THOSE CONJECTURES (I SUPPOSE IT IS TO MAKE THEM SEEM MORE BELIEVABLE.. *SHRUGS*). I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE SEEN MORE FACTS BEING PRESENTED. BASED ON WHAT I KNOW OF NASCA LINES AND THE CIVILIZATION.. I COULD COME UP WITH NUMEROUS CONJECTURES THAT WOULD HAVE JUST AS MUCH MERIT BASED ON WHAT WAS PRESENTED IN THE PROGRAM.
ALL IN ALL ... IF YOU CONSIDER WATCHING THIS PROGRAM.. I WOULD RECOMMEND SPENDING YOUR TIME MORE WISELY.
