The Bermuda Triangle - BBC Video + Info (Part 1)
'The Bermuda Triangle: Beneath the Waves' - An online BBC Television Documentary which includes a dramatic re-enactment of the disappearance of 'Flight 19' (see the background info at the video link below) and appearances by Richard Winer and Phil Beck.
"..Over the last century a thousand ships have been reported lost without a trace in the Bermuda Triangle. Using state-of-the-art technology, we're going to unlock one of the Ocean's deepest secrets. Can science prove if a recently discovered natural phenomenon could be dragging ships down to a watery grave?
..and we'll reveal a new mystery that until now was unexplained. Here, the truth can be far stranger than fiction. There are powerful, some would say evil, forces at work out here. Since 1492 when Christopher Columbus first sailed into the area and saw strange lights in the sky, the list of bizarre disappearences in the Bermuda Triangle has grown. Thousands of ships and planes have simply vanished without a trace.."

Other than promoting a BBC program, is there some news relevence here or some new information you can add to it?

I think it may depend on how you look at it - I'm not in the business of promoting the BBC's or any other company's programs.
I do feel, however, that the BBC has quite a good reputation for both the quality of their programs and for not promoting off-the-wall ideas.
As far as I know 'The Bermuda Triangle: Beneath the waves' has only been broadcast in the UK - from this perspective, existence of the program (and the ideas it contains) would be 'news' to those who live elsewhere.
Additionally, because theories abound over the phenomenon, I also thought it would be a good idea to anchor the post (so to speak) by including the viewpoints of the US Coast Guard and the Naval Historical Center.
At the time of writing there have been 74 views so I feel the effort has been worthwhile.

Yes I agree the the quality of the BBC documentary values.
I am missing seeing the viewpoints of the US Coast Guard and the Naval Historical Center.
The link to Evolution Research - General Evolution News also has nothing to to with the post, but your blog has some great stuff in it - well worth writing a 2 para mini story on many of the topics and posting in their own right - will get the right sort of traffic ;)
