This is BuzzFlash's hat tip to evolution.

Bring one of these BBC DVD sets to the Creationism Museum in Kentucky and like Dracula, the exhibits there will shrivel up and disappear.

This widely-acclaimed series relies heavily on the captivating power of computer generated images to create the various periods surrounding the dinosaur era. Alas, for Mike Huckabee, God doesn't make a personal appearance.

Fascinating for adults and young people alike, it literally brings to life the wondrous past of the earth that we inhabit, during times when homo sapiens did not rule the planet, in fact we were still evolving.

"WALKING WITH DINOSAURS: Learn all about the dinosaurs and how they ate, fought, mated, and more. High-tech animatronics and computer graphics are used to bring the world of the dinosaurs to life, in this popular documentary series. This release includes six episodes featuring the most up-to-date discoveries, and was narrated by Kenneth Branagh.

BEFORE THE DINOSAURS: The two previous entries in the Walking With Monsters series--WALKING WITH DINOSAURS and WALKING WITH PREHISTORIC BEASTS--were fascinating attempts to bring the dinosaurs to life through cutting-edge computer animation and incisive voiceover commentary. Now, the Discovery Channel unveils BEFORE THE DINOSAURS, an attempt to portray life on earth before those lumbering beasts stomped all over the land.

ALLOSAURUS: A follow up to the WALKING WITH DINOSAURS documentary, featuring the amazing computer animation that made its predecessor so popular. With a focus on the Allosaurus, the fearsome flesh-eating thunder lizard similar to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, this special explores the 12-meter monster that terrorized the late Jurassic Period. Equipped with huge serrated teeth designed for ripping the flesh from the bone, no more terrifying predator was seen in the dinosaur world until the advent of the T. Rex, some 75 million years later."

Come to think of it, the Allosaurus reminds us a lot of Dick Cheney and Karl Rove.
