The subject line in my email inbox called this a
free Christmas gift. Well, I guess that you could say that I'm a little late opening my Christmas present--I'm just now getting around to opening the message. This offer does end today, December 28.
The present is a
free video download of
The Building of the Ark Encounter, courtesy of the organization Answers in Genesis. I think that this offer is available to anyone. You might be required to set up an account; I doubt, however, that you will be required to receive emails from them if you wish to opt out from that.
Maybe most of you have at least heard of the project by AIG to build a replica of "Noah's" ark. Well, it was finished recently (FYI--in a southern suburb of Cincinnati, called Petersburg I think, across the Ohio drainage ditch (River), in Kentucky.
Someone may be offended that I'm posting this religious-related giveaway on a generic Media Deals thread. Two responses: one, the Christian Interest thread may be reserved for ebooks (I dunno). Second, even if you are not interested in the religious aspect of the boat, you may very well be fascinated by the information about the construction of this replica of the ark.
To get the
free video, try pointing your web browser to
this website. Follow the prompts. A problem that I ran into was in checkout. It will say at one point that code AEGIFT16 was applied. When I got to the final page of checkout, I was still prompted to pay $7.99. I went back to the webpage in checkout where it said that the code had been applied, and then I manually did it anyway. Bada bing, bada boom!--that did the trick. Result: a
free video ready for my downloading.
I haven't had a chance to view the download (see the first paragraph of this post), so I don't know about the length of the video, and I didn't see any information about it anywhere that I looked on Answers in Genesis' website, either. But, hey, it's
free.
