I was wondering the discussions about which country was the first to send
the Attenborough TV series. One of the Swiss TV channels started the
series already in the last week of June, ending in the second week of
August. I enjoyed the wonderful close-up pictures, many of them
filmographical masterpieces of highest phototechnical perfection (as e.g.
the takes on the inner structure of wood). Unfortunately the spoken comment
was not scientifically correct in all details, but for the broad majority
the creation of bioecological awareness is certainly of higher importance
than the factual appropriateness of subspecialty small print knowledge.
