Stumbled across this while looking for something to watch while eating Chicken madras (which i must say was awesome) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rtIWL7qTYQ Its an old VHS copy which clearly shows in the audio quality but goes over some very interesting ideas and views especially considering this was done over 20 years ago, and also for you poo lovers out there about 40 minutes in they go over coprolites. Anyway hope you enjoy and its not too main stream. Thanks Matt
