GETTING DOWN AND DIRTY
Dirt! the movie tells the secret story of the stuff we stand on  
everyday.  One teaspoon of dirt has billions of good critters that  
make life possible every day - through weather, from the trees and  
forests to every bit of food we eat.  This funny yet serious movie  
shows you how the living dirt beneath us is doing and how we are all  
made of and connected to dirt.  Based on the book by William Bryant (http://bit.ly/8g5fnB 
), you'll hear from top scientists to Riker Island criminals about the  
problems and the solutions to today's dirty mess.  After watching this  
movie, you'll never look at dirt the same again.  Are you ready to get  
DIRTy to make a difference?
