In reply to Ken Kennedy.

This is the good side of the web -- people from disparate locations who can connect on a meaningful/substantive level without ever having met. As I mentioned in post way back (http://near-earth.com/2010/12/19/facebook-probation/), these connections are as "real" as any in-person connections. Indeed, for some, vastly more so. I do a weekly podcast with 3 other guys I've never met. I confide in people I never met. I collaborate artistically with people I've never met. And that's pretty much the way I like it.

Oh, and what happened to your podcast?
