Although a new person is now alternating with us, unfortunately she was
unable to do the show this week, this means I've had to do the show 3
weeks in a row. Hopefully, soon we'll be on an alternating schedule.

Dave came on the show Jan 15, 1999, unfortunately it looks like we won't
be able to do his MP3 set, but as always he had some interesting stories
to tell.
