7:27am @merlyn did you wake up yet?
7:26am @n8twj oooohhhh noooooooo
7:21am Why does it take so long for Part 2 to appear? Because it needs to be cut, levelized, silence truncated, mp3 tagged and uploaded.
7:18am @stevebiddle but it went on for 7 1/2 hours! Even I went to bed before the end!
7:18am @akant audio player is Flash-based and so I have to hack a replacement for "Audio requires Flash..." to list mp3 downloads
