A follow up for the TV program "A Brief History of Disbelief" if you are in the Indianapolis, IN area. I just received the following in an email:

"Earlier this year you had expressed interest in seeing A Brief History

I'll be watching or taping, and hope others in the area will be as well!

Cheers, ctenotrish
