I am really enjoying watching this and learning. Only problem is, I feel like I am too old now. I keep thinking that what I am watching at the time would make an interesting career choice, but it's too late.
I wish a channel like this had been available when I was young.
I get it as a freebie part of the time on Dish, and go through the guide and mark anything interesting to record. Their material is interesting enough to watch over and over. I like that its not so watered down either. Its among a handfull of channels I'd pick if I could choose what I wanted and didn't want.
That and PBS and when I get it as a freebie National Geographic are good mind candy but we need a lot more of it. I like to keep the best saved to make up for when all that's on is the normal brainlessness of current tv.

BTW, I am getting it on local FIOS ch 622.
I get SCI channel and I love it too. I love NatGeo too. I am too old, sadly, myself. Not feel too old, I am too old. What wonderful and interesting careers there could have been!
I figure you never get too old to learn. I don't remember my parents doing much encouragement with me, but it wasn't necessary. I LOVED science. We went rockhounding and I learned about the types of rock and how the earth made them by my own reading. I also live and breath history. It never seemed odd to me that others didn't necessarily go for those things, but then I've never been interested in stuff like sports and don't buy the mindset. But I've felt like I was different since I was a kid.
If Science channel and NatGeo and even the current watered down version of History had been then, I'd have been glued to the TV.
I wish I could get Science and a few others all the time. I'd watch some of the shows over and over.
I figure I may be too far along to be a scientist, but have embrased science since I was a kid and there is always something new to learn.
