Really good film - geology is a unfulfilled hobby of mine and twin brother who has spent his life as a petroleum engineer, for a long time in charge of Mobile oil Mobile Bay project knows the geology of Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama well.
I spent a lot time in my youth in the 1950's around the rivers of North Florida Withlacoochee, Oklawaha, Ichetucknee, Suwannee (which runs into the Gulf in an enormous sparsely habited swamp woods) and in that beautiful limestone bluegrass central rib of Florida that stretches from the Okefenokee to Orlando. The springs that fed the creeks in that Oolitic Limestone area were ice cold. And out on the lakes towards the east of Gainesville and the Saint Johns that we called "the Big Scrub" where it was rumored there were some of the last of the Florida panthers. Florida was a different place then - Alachua County was the second largest cattle producing county in the country. Limestone as the video said is deep-water rock. We hunted fossilized sharks teeth in the creeks.
