St. Peter's Basilica

This is more of a comment than a question: Steve, the program on Nepal and St. Peter's Basilica was excellent. However, St. Peter's is not the most holy site in Christendom; it the most holy site in the Roman Catholic community of Christians.

And as a Lutheran, that's pretty 'generous' of him ;-) BTW, while Rick may read the Helpline, those who post on it are simply fellow travelers/traveler wannabes like yourself.

Isn't Steve one of RS guides and I think he has actually helped RS write some of his material for the guidebooks, and has been on the Paris show , didn't know he did the Rome show too , or could be another "Steve" . I think there is a section on this website somewhere that you can post about things that are in the guidebooks that you think need to be reviewed . Not sure about the actual shows. I agree St Peters is not the most holy site in Christendom, where that may be is up to debate I suppose , but its not St Peters, except perhaps to Catholics( I was raised Catholic and would even disagree that St Peters qualifies for that laud either ) I just don't really pay that much attention to little details on travel shows though, its all just a way to get you excited about seeing a site.. ( ps , St Peters is amazing though, seriously, amazing, even my 11 yr old said " wow, and people were still living without flush toilets or antibiotics and yet they could build this!!!")
