The History channel was history 25 years ago, my wife would always tease me and ask why I was watching another show about WWII when I knew how it ended. The men who built America a few years back was pretty good, not so much about the people but about how railroads,kerosene, electricity, etc., changed how people lived.
Do you remember they also did one hour shows about cars, including Austin Healey and Jaguar? I recorded most of them on VHS-wanted to keep them, wife kept making noises about how we didn't have a VHS player and never would again, the mysterious workings of the female brain (ha ha). (Edit: VHS, not DVD)

VHS tapes can be converted to DVD, but they won't look any better.

But at least they'll be playable on equipment you can still get reasonably easily. And disks are a lot easier to use than tapes anyway.
Plus, they'll be easy to transfer to whatever form of digital storage becomes the norm down the line.

Interesting.
As a friend of mine who worked in England for a while said: "The Japanese are proud of their electronics, the Americans are proud of their biotechnology, and the English are proud of their steam engines."

The IH truck, the mighty V model, at 2:12 in that video about where The History channel went wrong is the same model as the one the hood was stolen from in the Mongrel thread in the humor section.
