    Didnt get the email this week, think its being resent. Is the link posted on the site anywhere for the mutterings or only the email?

  • These mutterings should be formatted as a podcast. It'd make it much easier for people to listen to them with an automatic download.

    In fact...much of the news on the site could be greatly advantaged by an rss feed.

    Just an idea.

    Tried to run 'The Mutterings' this week on windows media, but 01.27 into the file it stopped with 'Reached end of file'.
    Ran the mutterings from last week without any problems. Tried this week's again with the same problem.
    Noticed that the file is a MP3 and that Media only likes WMA files. Anyone else had problems?
    Will try it on Realplayer or Quicktime, see if results any better.

    A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
