By now, most of you know all about Aron Ralston, the 27 year-old Colorado adventurer who cut off his own arm in order to extract himself from a slot canyon in the Utah wilderness where he had been trapped for six days. And I trust many of you have read his heart-stopping book Between a Rock and a Hard Place by now.

Many of you have requested a copy of the NBC Dateline special on Aron Ralston, Desperate Days in Blue John Canyon, which aired last September 10th, and which I happened to tape. I've repeatedly declined, of course, as that would be illegal, and I'm not about to go there.

Well, thanks to reader Kal, you all have an opportunity to see it and tape it for yourselves.

According to Kal: TLC is showing "The Aron Ralston Story - Trapped in a Canyon" this week. May 18 Wednesday, and May 22 Sunday. It is a near carbon-copy of the same show as presented by NBCs Dateline last September. Tom Brokaw, 2 hours long. Make your own copy - save Carey from the bad food and 5x8 cell!

So there you have it. Settle in, make the popcorn and happy viewing (and taping!)

And thanks for letting us know Kal.
