Amazon.com: The Day of the Triffids: DVD: John Duttine,Emma Relph,Maurice Colbourne,Eva Griffiths,David Swift,Christina Schofield,Donald Pelmear,Desmo

For the select few.
The BBC version which was produced in 1981 by the Brits and the Aussies and
then shown in three parts is finally being re-released in the U.S and which
will have the suitable U.S. DVD formatting.
The American Hollywood film version of this Wyndham fifties novel was
released in the early sixties and was total trash though still available.

What's the significance? The Triffids novel has all the threads of a
suddenly collapsing society and which we may soon be confronted with as Peak
Oil becomes apparent.
Or if you prefer: Climate Change issues or both.
The Norman Church: Oil/energy/Food essay that i recently sent you describes
some of these issues without the dramatization. Especially the energy food
connection. It was also very well done.
Also the accompanying articles describing the collapse of both N.Korea and
Cuba's economy are timely and significant for all of us.

It is very difficult to convince people if they are living in the horn of
plenty as we all are that this situation could soon change significantly and
awareness is our only effective response.
