Did anybody else see the program 'Time' on BBC 4 last night?

Was quite an interesting program. I think it was the 3rd in a 4 part series.

It took a little while to get going but I was really into it by the end.

Some interesting points were made last night such as the fact that human history on earth is like a grain of sand in comparison to the history of Earth itself which is 4600m years old I think?? Also an interesting point was that its probably likely that one day humans could well become extinct and Earth itself will also die one day.

It was funny to see it on tv last night as I was having a similar conversation with a friend a few weeks back. I think I scared him a bit then as he doesnt like talking about stuff like that anymore. ha ha

I just attemped A Brief History of Time by Prof. Stephen Hawking...

but surely time itself is History as history could not exsist without time ??

also time is supposedly infinite so how can it be brief ??
