Thanks Wallace for keeping this topic alive on GC

Thanks fellow Aussies sallyanne and oldmangrumpy for your comments although I'm not sure what sallyanne is talking about

I've accepted most people never comment on anything. Their 'views' are recorded but not their ideas. (which you could conclude are non-existent)

You can pay Utube to 'promote' your videos but I'm about to turn 74 so 'growing your channel' is a joke. Eventually videos get removed due to no visits from the owner, so making videos is not really a long term activity.

I used to watch Andrew's videos. I like the big skies and massive canyons. He investigated native American sites which were mostly located on inaccessible cliffs tops. While Europeans spent centuries building castles to protect themselves from other Europeans (generalization), native Americans used the landscape itself to protect themselves from other tribes.
Andrew the desert drifter used to climb the shear cliff walls to explore and film yet was killed by a drunk driver 4 minutes from his home. That's the end of his channel but other people now do similar content. I now watch
The Trek Planner' and
Jessies Drone Adventures.
