This is good stuff!

I'm getting well hooked on these (as I listen to more of them and get used to the voices). I've been listening since #22, and while some are more of interest than others, all ARE interesting.

I apologize for not being more appreciative in the past.

I couldn't find the thread at CFC? What's up! Granted, I also forgot that I had already downloaded the podcast, which was the whole reason I was looking for the thread. :sad:
