Following up on Devorah Bennu comment ...

The "Lord of the Ants" program went out as a BBC Horizon program
earlier in the year (or late last year) as NOVA/WGBH and Horizon work
together on a lot of shows.

I've already seen the show. It's a great summary of his life and his
work. It is an excellent program. Especially the bit where he puts
his hand onto a nest of fire ants!

Unfortunately, it's not on KCTS tonight but it is on KOPB. Perhaps
later in the year for KCTS?

If you can't watch the TV show they stream this show online.
