Hmm, watching this right after the 1978 series he seems to be "running out of steam". The 16 years must have eaten away some of the enthusiasm. Or maybe it is due to a changed production crew?

[Kodemaster]

Thank you for posting these! I sure wish TLC would bring this series back. Enough with the "reality" show rubbish.

[wegreenall]

finally i understand what he was talking about with that pump! how the hell did he know that was one of the bits i didn't understand?!

[JamesBurkeWeb]

haha. He must be psychic!

This was always one of my favourite episodes. 

It reminds me of when the book came out around the same time (The Pinball Effect), several of us in high school bought it and made a game: Someone called out an event, and we took turns spinning our own series of connections from it (Thanks in large part to the "hyperlinks" in the margin). Whoever got stuck without being able to remember an event to link to lost the round.

Great fun!

[JamesBurkeWeb]

That does sound like a fun game!

Maybe it could be marketed for use in classrooms as an aid in learning "connectively" as k-web aims to do?

@DaveKovacs82 anything ever become of this?

[wildheartcowboy]

is the Kweb still in the works or what? i've been to the website and i cant find it

[JamesBurkeWeb]

Yes, it is in the works. I can't say for sure what the e.t.a. is on a beta run, but I hope it will be soon. Once I get the site "completed" (about 5 days if all goes well) I'll have a chance to look closer at where things are. But it'll take me at least a month or so to get up to speed on the tehnology they're using before I could come back with a decent prediction. So... for the time being I guess we're all in the dark so to speak :(.

this is confusing, is this episode 1&2 like the title says, or 3&4 like the info says? then we switch to Spanish?

[JamesBurkeWeb]

Is there a mistake in the playlist? I'll check it out and fix the error there. The info must be wrong if it says 3&4, which would be a typo which I will also fix.

Thanks for the notice.

[JamesBurkeWeb]

I don't see any problems with the playlist... I'm not sure why it is switching to spanish??? Anyway, I fixed the typos (the title is correct, the description was not).

I think I can see where some might get confused with these. They appear to be presented in a similar way that the DVDs I just got for TDTUC. (pairing two episodes together E0102 = Episode 1 and 2) On top of that is YouTube's typical 10 minutes time limit makes it into 5 video clips = Ep. 1 and 2 - Video 1 of 5,

Ep 3 and 4 - Video 1 of 5. etc.

Someone who is familiar with the series or DVDs probably doesn't get confused as much as those without any previous exposure to James Burke films.

[JamesBurkeWeb]

Yes, sorry about that. I would've done it in single episodes with the current setup. Before there was just one "playlists" page so having 20 boxes just seemed too lengthy / inconvenient to browse through.
