By Nick Carter
(Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007) Tonight: nothing much new, but at least there’s a lot to watch. As we have recommended before, the All-Clad segment on Made in America is great, and Trade School’s “Aviaton Maintenance” should show us some interesting techniques.

It’s the true reflection of how much of a geek I am that I’d much rather watch “How it’s Made” than “Sopranos” or “Desperate Housewives.”
