Good news: Yesterday I received my copy of Standing With Stones: A Journey Through Megalithic Britain from Amazon.com; and it does in fact contain all the extra features—apart from the postcards—touted at Amazon.co.uk for the now-unavailable U.K. release! Since Amazon.com's description of the digital versatile disk contained no mention of any extra features—and since extras are (nearly) always mentioned in such descriptions—I erroneously reported no extras were included with the U.S. release. I was wrong (Yay!) and I apologize to one and all, especially to Messrs. Bott and Soskin.
I suggest Messrs. Bott and Soskin contact Amazon.com and request those extra features be mentioned in their film's description. Compare the Amazon.co.uk description with the Amazon.com description and you'll see what I mean.
More good news: Furthermore, the U.S. release is in fact an All Regions disk and not a Region 1 disk! Less-than-good news: However, it is a so-called NTSC (National Television System Committee) disk rather than an All Formats disk. The format so often referred to as NTSC is actually called ISO/IEC 13818-2 (ISO is International Organization for Standardization and IEC is International Electrotechnical Commission), but disk distributors are sticking with the obsolete NTSC label.
On its way to me even as we speak is the Timothy Darvill and Rupert Soskin book Standing with Stones: A Photographic Journey Through Megalithic Britain and Ireland (London: Thames & Hudson, 2009), via Amazon.co.uk. It was shipped on 9th May and is due to arrive on the 30th! Apparently Kon-Tiki has been refitted and pressed into service as a cargo carrier.
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
