    DS8 and I thoroughly enjoyed this! It doubles as math and history!!! I think it's a must rent from the library or netflix if you like math and history. We waited to the last minute to watch it and it must go back today but we'll check it out again to add all the information to our timeline. We really enjoyed the humor. The host is from Monty Python. It also sparked conversations about interest, compound interest, capitalism.

    I particularly liked the discussion why the Sumerians developed a counting system but a group in Australia didn't, even until this day!

    And the Hindu-Arabic numbers fighting with the Roman numerals was just too funny!
