   Yuck... it appears the Internet Archive has eaten those files. Instead of the MP3 you get a text stream reading "Error reading XML data".

   The irony, the irony .... I have eyes, not an iPod.
   Well, I've put it on the list to hunt down on paper.

   Hello. This file plays ultra slow and low on my creative mp3 player. Not sure why; might be the sample rate? The others are fine. I'm waitng for the sarcastic 'get yerself an ipod'. =^p LOVING your stories. You're my #1 SciFi writer. Thanks for the casts!
