    The classic line from the film was from William Conrad (best known
as 
    lard-bucket private eye Frank Cannon) to the effect that the column
of ants 
    was "Two miles wide and twenty miles long!	That's forty square
miles of 
    agonising death!" 

    He was subsequently eaten- myself, I think that's what saved Heston.
 The 
    ants were full. 

  Actually no. He survived. He tried to convince Heston to abandon his
plantaion and come back down river with him. Heston refused. 

  (Can you tell AMC had that movie on about a week ago :o)
