Before delivering Seminar 17 on the Dinosaurs, a colleague asked if two young relatives of hers (grandsons) living on the Isle of Wight would be allowed to view the presentation because they were interested in Dinosaurs. Of course I said, but thought they might find the content a bit too high level for them. The standard of the material is aimed to be A Level Geology / First Year Geology Degree Level which is posisbly a bt much for ages 6 and 8. Saying that I was giving my 9 year old nephew some coaching for the 11+ exams which he will be sitting in a year or so. The test questions we were going through look alot harder than those I had to answer when I sat the 12+ exam, mind you that was over 20 years ago now!
Anyway I digress. The recording for Seminar 17 has been compressed and is published below for the viewer.
Whilst I am on the topic of dinosaurs, my nephew and niece recently visited the Natural History Museum in London and confirmed that "Dippy" the Diplodocus is still in place in the entrance hall, although the plan is for the skeleton to move out to be replaced by a whale skeleton in 2017.
Going forward the remaining recordings I have on file plus new ones will be published in sequence as and when I get the files compressed. I am still not completly happy with the fix I have for getting the file size down but until I find an alternative, it will have to do.
