Conquering the Earth


In the introduction the Prof says that fire gave us the ability to conquer the Earth ... Surely one thing this show highlights is that "The Earth" can't be conquered and that the natural forces of nature are beyond our control.

I daresay he chose his words carefully so I'm surprised by his use of language here.

Not a big deal, still a very worthwhile series.
