history channel - modern marvels - magnets - 7pm tonight

(OP)
I happened to see this episode today and I see it's running again at 7pm (I think that is Eastern time)
http://www.history.com/shows.do?action=detail&episodeId=205712

It is somewhat interesting:
I learned AlNiCo is an iron alloy (I didn't know that but it's true)
Saw the process for producing flexible powder sheet magnets for refrigerators etc - pretty interesting
Heard about new research to use magnets for RAM that will be static (won't go away when you turn your computer off) and for plastic magnets.
Saw the floating frog at the high-magnetic lab in Talahassee Flordia.
etc
