welcome dave. Its funny to read your statements because for a long time, people said online video was difficult to search. Also, people talked about being able to listen to audio podcasts while dong other things (driving, etc) I agree that circumstances have changed. I actually listen to a handful of podcasts that give good information and dont waste my time. Jay -- http://jaydedman.com 917 371 6790
