I don't believe it - both History channel and Discovery have Wright Brothers
programs at the same time tonight!

the shame of it is that it's been 100 years since the Wright brothers
shanghaied history and claimed to be the first to fly.
Pity about the forgotten Richard Pearse and before him Gustave
Whitehead who both beat the Wright Brothers into the air. Whitehead
even provided the Wright bros. some help, for which they never even
acknowledged.

No worries, I'm sure both will be repeated.

Its a bit like having NFL on ESPN and FoxSports at the same time (evening
repeats, NOT live games) and Basketball on ESPN & FoxSPorts (NBL/NBA) on Wed
nights.

Even though neither interest me, it is still pretty stupid.

I'm not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why
don't we just take the safety labels off everything and let the problem
solve itself?
