And one last thing before we get to the (k)nitty-gritty: WE ARE NOW ON ITUNES! (edited: iTunes might get wonky as we change hosts. I removed the link for now, sorry!) We will continue to post podcasts directly to the blog for our web viewers. Thanks to Tlessard3 and RogueFalcon70 for their wonderful iTunes reviews (and giving us some "Squee!" opportunities as we read them)!
