With all those SKYPE things going on, what about doing a RL podcast together?
- I have no idea how SKYPE works, nor what should be the topic of such a podcast, but, first of all, I'd enjoy chatting with you like that,
and second, maybe we can promote RL a bit that way.
Please enlighten this poor scribe still at the age of feathers and ink: what is skype?

More importantly than that, Skype is a free internet telephone service.
Actually, it was only free for a year or two. I don't know if they charge yet.
Still, it was a lot better than paying for long distance.

It's still free, but only from internet-to-internet calls.

In any case, I don't think we've considered a podcast service. This is mainly because I have Catastrophic Alphabetic Modulation Disorder, better known as CAMD. At random intervals, in place of the word I mean to say, I actually speak the next word in the dictionary.
Its a serious problem that constantly lands me in big trough.

This is exactly what I thought of - maybe we could test this some time and record a session, if it works out well.

You mean, instead of "basket", you say "bastard", or instead of "Mr police officer" you say "Polish officious"?! Priceless!
Do not confuse the dread secretary with your real world foolishness, I struggle enough as it is with this modern convenience known as movable type. No matter how hard I try to bite it, it does not bleed!
My mummy used to sing me to sleep at night. 'Run and catch....the lamb-is-caught in the blackberry-patch...' She had the sweetest voice.... What will your mummy sing when they find your body?"
