Saturday Learning Series - Connections re-work required



James Burke, historian.

The series I have been posting with such enthusiasm, Connections 2, one of 4 great series from historian James Burke, just turned private and I am not able to post any new videos from that source.

Worse still, all the previous videos have switched to private as well.  So they all need to be re-worked as well.  Luckily, the videos exist from other sources as well and I will hopefully be able to continue next week after the re-work is done.

Meanwhile I will post another unrelated Saturday Learning Series video later today to make up for the interruption.
