Rocks and Minerals
I grew up in an area that had been strewn with a great variety of rocks and minerals. Quarts, Olivine, metamorphic rocks and all the other rocks and minerals mentioned in the video were readily available. That's because a whole neighborhood had been demolished to prepare the way for a high rise apartment complex, and for some reason, the ground was strewn with all these wonderful rocks and minerals.
Only later as an adult did I realize that I was collecting things that were display in museums. Had I had a video like this one, I would have been far more appreciative of what was readily available to me in abundance. Now if I want one of those I have to purchase them, at the local museum. Ironic!

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
