“Let’s Subtract” Sometimes less is more – simpler is better. All this talk about adding, multiplying and dividing in the world. Here’s educator Rebecca Warden on her version of the “Inconvenient Truth” tour, speaking to young people about the importance of subtracting – reducing, taking away, lessening, minusing. The kids always seemed to respond with smiles hearing that there was no pressure to put two and two together anymore. (Listen and learn here at Way Out Junk)

“Jungle Nights and Man Eaters”   With Dana Brown.   (1967)   It took big game hunter, Dana Brown two years to track down and kill the “Man-eating” tiger of Western Nepal.     Along the way, Dana spent 26 nights alone in 14 different jungles to record the   actual jungle sounds heard here for the first time.   Sounds of a Royal Bengal Tiger fighting with a 1,000 pound buffalo; the sounds of tigers mating! and the weird music of Western Nepal during the 8-day holiday when all marriage ties are disolved!   But back to the serial killer tiger, it claimed 50 victims before the King of Nepal called on Dana to fix the problem.
