Okay, leave 00:06:37.440 --> 00:06:38.000 it like that. 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:39.520 So the way we're connecting as 00:06:39.520 --> 00:06:41.270 we did with the first show, and 00:06:41.270 --> 00:06:42.640 this is-- it's pretty cutting- 00:06:42.640 --> 00:06:43.000 edge stuff. 00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:46.750 What we're doing is I'm using i 00:06:46.750 --> 00:06:50.340 Chat AV, and we've set up a call 00:06:50.340 --> 00:06:54.000 with AOL's Instant Messenger. 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.370 Now, what's interesting is that 00:06:55.370 --> 00:06:56.460 you can't just use the talk 00:06:56.460 --> 00:06:57.000 feature. 00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:58.110 In fact, it'll say that, you 00:06:58.110 --> 00:06:59.270 know, that I don't support the 00:06:59.270 --> 00:07:00.000 talk feature. 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:01.960 So we have to actually open up 00:07:01.960 --> 00:07:03.000 the webcam. 00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:04.300 I figured out a way so we have 00:07:04.300 --> 00:07:05.710 a one-way video chat, so that 00:07:05.710 --> 00:07:07.020 way I'm pushing out a little 00:07:07.020 --> 00:07:08.000 bit of bandwidth, 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:09.070 and I have my camera covered. I 00:07:09.070 --> 00:07:11.140 just took a picture, Dave, with 00:07:11.140 --> 00:07:12.000 a dish rag. 00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:13.360 So we're using as few bits as 00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:15.000 possible on video connection, 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.000 just using the audio. 00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:18.680 And, you know, I'm routing 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:20.200 everything around, and 00:07:20.200 --> 00:07:22.000 everything seems to be okay. 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:23.730 I'll knock on wood because my 00:07:23.730 --> 00:07:25.470 Mac has not been happy since I 00:07:25.470 --> 00:07:27.000 've been doing all the-- 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:28.180 I think when you do this audio 00:07:28.180 --> 00:07:29.350 stuff, it messes up the hard 00:07:29.350 --> 00:07:31.350 drive somehow, and sectors get 00:07:31.350 --> 00:07:32.000 real. 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:33.820 Yeah, messed up. And now my 00:07:33.820 --> 00:07:35.350 computer won't wake up from 00:07:35.350 --> 00:07:36.000 sleep. 00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:37.250 It'll wake up and-- it's 00:07:37.250 --> 00:07:38.780 literally, you know, how your 00:07:38.780 --> 00:07:40.000 Mac has a personality. 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:41.540 And so it wakes up and it goes, 00:07:41.540 --> 00:07:43.000 "Oh, I don't think so." Click. 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.000 It turns off. 00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:46.110 Yeah, my Windows machine has 00:07:46.110 --> 00:07:47.000 personality, too. 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:48.750 Unfortunately, it's a really 00:07:48.750 --> 00:07:50.000 shitty personality. 00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:52.000 [laughter] 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:54.160 And I had the same exact thing 00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:55.000 happen. 00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:58.910 I tried to play The Sims 2, 00:07:58.910 --> 00:08:01.300 which I got-- managed to get it 00:08:01.300 --> 00:08:02.000 to boot up for like-- 00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:03.990 and run for like one minute or 00:08:03.990 --> 00:08:05.000 two minutes. 00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:06.840 Enough to know that I'm really 00:08:06.840 --> 00:08:08.560 going to love it, but every 00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:10.000 time I try to run that thing, 00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:11.380 it just totally hangs up my 00:08:11.380 --> 00:08:12.000 system. 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:14.180 Yeah, and I have to reboot 00:08:14.180 --> 00:08:15.000 twice. 00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:17.170 Rebooting once isn't enough, so 00:08:17.170 --> 00:08:18.000 you have to like reboot, 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.930 and then sort of like watch the 00:08:19.930 --> 00:08:21.710 machine suffer and then reboot 00:08:21.710 --> 00:08:22.000 again, 00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:23.620 and then you get your machine 00:08:23.620 --> 00:08:24.000 back. 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:25.300 And every time something like 00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:27.400 that happens, the machine gets 00:08:27.400 --> 00:08:28.000 further and further away 00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:29.730 from being anything that you 00:08:29.730 --> 00:08:31.000 want to deal with. 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:32.290 And then what do you eventually 00:08:32.290 --> 00:08:33.000 wind up doing? 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:33.750 I mean, I know what happens 00:08:33.750 --> 00:08:34.880 with me is I usually wind up 00:08:34.880 --> 00:08:36.000 getting so frustrated 00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:37.400 and like, "Oh, time for a new 00:08:37.400 --> 00:08:38.520 laptop," and it gets passed 00:08:38.520 --> 00:08:39.000 down in line. 00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:40.000 Exactly. 00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:41.860 This machine was the result of 00:08:41.860 --> 00:08:43.570 a Sony Vio getting into that 00:08:43.570 --> 00:08:44.000 state, 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.100 which is now sitting in a 00:08:45.100 --> 00:08:47.140 little container in my parents' 00:08:47.140 --> 00:08:49.000 garage in New York City. 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:50.980 I can tell this one's going 00:08:50.980 --> 00:08:52.000 there too. 00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:55.130 Well, unfortunately, yeah, well 00:08:55.130 --> 00:08:55.720 the same thing happened to my 00:08:55.720 --> 00:08:56.000 server. 00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:57.920 I tried to run some software up 00:08:57.920 --> 00:08:59.320 on the new server I put 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:00.000 together, 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:01.770 and now I can't bring Frontier 00:09:01.770 --> 00:09:03.120 to the front without it 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:04.000 crashing. 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:05.000 Oh, shoot. 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:06.170 So basically, yeah, it's one of 00:09:06.170 --> 00:09:07.000 those situations. 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:08.490 So everything basically has to 00:09:08.490 --> 00:09:09.000 do that. 00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:10.400 So you're using WebEdit to make 00:09:10.400 --> 00:09:11.000 changes. 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:13.000 WebEdit, that's right. 00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:14.430 I'm doing all my stuff through 00:09:14.430 --> 00:09:15.530 WebEdit, which is good 00:09:15.530 --> 00:09:16.000 discipline. 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:17.350 It sort of keeps my 00:09:17.350 --> 00:09:20.000 visualization ability active. 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:22.030 Unfortunately, I finally have a 00:09:22.030 --> 00:09:23.810 NetConnection that is good 00:09:23.810 --> 00:09:24.000 enough. 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.340 In Seattle here, I have a Cable 00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:28.490 Modem NetConnection, which is 00:09:28.490 --> 00:09:29.000 pretty good. 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:30.920 And it's good enough for me to 00:09:30.920 --> 00:09:32.760 VPN or whatever they call it 00:09:32.760 --> 00:09:34.000 into that machine. 00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:36.000 But now I can't use it. 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:37.000 Oh, man. 00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:38.000 That's just the way it goes. 00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:39.250 Well, maybe once we get Front 00:09:39.250 --> 00:09:40.000 ier open sourced, 00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:41.750 we can start addressing some of 00:09:41.750 --> 00:09:43.000 those kinds of issues 00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:44.020 and get some good debugging 00:09:44.020 --> 00:09:45.000 environment in there. 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.600 Regarding the Sims, on itcon 00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:51.000 versations.com, there is-- 00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:53.020 I'm trying to think if maybe I 00:09:53.020 --> 00:09:54.000 can find it-- 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.000 there's a whole speech by-- 00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:57.000 what's the guy's name? 00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:58.000 The creator of the Sims? 00:09:58.000 --> 00:09:59.000 Will Wright. 00:09:59.000 --> 00:10:00.000 Will Wright? 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.000 It could be Will Wright. 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:02.000 And I listened to it. 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:03.430 It's one of those hour-long 00:10:03.430 --> 00:10:04.000 deals. 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.000 And it was really good. 00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:06.830 I mean, because he talked about 00:10:06.830 --> 00:10:08.700 all the challenges and how they 00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:10.000 figured it all out. 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:12.000 It was just unbelievable. 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.000 Yeah, Will Wright. 00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:14.000 Damn. 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.000 An hour and 40 minutes. 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:17.000 That's captivating stuff. 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.000 Yeah. 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:19.000 Well, he's got a lot to say. 00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:20.200 I mean, you can see that they 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.310 spend a little bit more than an 00:10:22.310 --> 00:10:24.000 hour and 44 minutes putting 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:25.000 that game together. 00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:26.000 Yeah, it's also-- 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.000 It's not really a game. 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:30.260 So, SimXXX has never been about 00:10:30.260 --> 00:10:31.000 games. 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:34.720 They're sort of like worlds 00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:37.000 where you play God. 00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.000 And you can have a lot of fun. 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:43.080 I read a comment on my blog a 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:45.000 year ago. 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.510 And it was just after my uncle 00:10:46.510 --> 00:10:47.000 died. 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:49.270 And I was obviously in a pretty 00:10:49.270 --> 00:10:51.000 Sims mode at the time. 00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:53.150 So, in his honor, I basically 00:10:53.150 --> 00:10:55.060 called my Sims and I put them 00:10:55.060 --> 00:10:56.000 in a room. 00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:57.740 And I built a-- I took out all 00:10:57.740 --> 00:10:59.000 the doors and windows. 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.000 And I let them die. 00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:02.000 I didn't torture them. 00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:03.000 I let them starve. 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:04.000 Oh, no. 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:09.000 If I could have-- if I could 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:09.000 have, I would have cut their 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:09.000 heads off slowly. 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:10.000 Oh, man. 00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:11.430 And watch them-- yeah, it's 00:11:11.430 --> 00:11:12.330 like what we want to do with 00:11:12.330 --> 00:11:13.000 the Zarkali. 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:14.880 Man, is this some fucked up 00:11:14.880 --> 00:11:16.000 shit or what? 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:17.480 Well, they know how to push our 00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:19.000 buttons, that's for sure. 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:20.000 Yeah, but it's not working. 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.000 It's not working. 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:22.250 No one's going to give into 00:11:22.250 --> 00:11:24.000 that except-- was it Poland? 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.000 I think not Poland. 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:27.810 One country said we're out 00:11:27.810 --> 00:11:30.000 after they were threatened. 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:31.000 Yeah. 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:32.780 Well, I don't think it's the 00:11:32.780 --> 00:11:34.560 threats that are going to get 00:11:34.560 --> 00:11:35.000 us. 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.850 But I think that it's hard to 00:11:37.850 --> 00:11:39.000 ignore. 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.150 I mean, it's amazing how, look 00:11:41.150 --> 00:11:43.500 at this, the argument for being 00:11:43.500 --> 00:11:45.000 in Iraq is that, you know, 00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:47.000 we're there to bring democracy. 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.400 And Bush is putting down Kerry 00:11:49.400 --> 00:11:51.510 because Kerry said, according 00:11:51.510 --> 00:11:53.000 to Bush, that they would be 00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:55.000 better off of Saddam Hussein. 00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:56.250 And of course, Kerry said, " 00:11:56.250 --> 00:11:57.000 Does it stay?" 00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.390 And I mean, it's like-- this 00:11:59.390 --> 00:12:02.120 whole way of arguing is like, I 00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:04.000 'm going to put some words in 00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:04.000 your 00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:06.550 mouth and then I'm going to 00:12:06.550 --> 00:12:07.000 just-- 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:10.000 Oh, did we lose you day-to-day? 00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:11.000 Hello? 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:12.000 Here. 00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:13.000 Oh, yeah, you're back. 00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:14.000 Hello. 00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:15.000 Yeah. 00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:16.000 Okay. 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:17.130 Some guy named Juan Cole, I 00:12:17.130 --> 00:12:18.000 think was his name. 00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.000 I've pointed to it today. 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:22.960 He wrote a piece that sort of 00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:25.500 put what's going on in Iraq in 00:12:25.500 --> 00:12:28.000 perspective for people in the 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:29.890 United States, which is that, 00:12:29.890 --> 00:12:31.680 you know, if Iraq was doing to 00:12:31.680 --> 00:12:33.000 us what we were doing to 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:34.800 them, they would have 1.6 00:12:34.800 --> 00:12:36.320 million troops in the United 00:12:36.320 --> 00:12:37.000 States. 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.000 And every-- 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:39.740 You say they don't already have 00:12:39.740 --> 00:12:41.000 that number ready. 00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:42.000 Sleepy. 00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.000 Well, I don't think they do. 00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:45.390 I think the Iraqis basically 00:12:45.390 --> 00:12:46.930 are pretty, you know, they're 00:12:46.930 --> 00:12:48.000 pretty screwed. 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:49.470 They got screwed under Hussein 00:12:49.470 --> 00:12:50.710 and they're getting screwed 00:12:50.710 --> 00:12:52.000 pretty badly right now. 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.000 A lot of them are dying. 00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.750 And if you took the proportions 00:12:55.750 --> 00:12:58.080 , you know, 300 Iraqis are dying 00:12:58.080 --> 00:12:59.000 every week. 00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:01.840 And if you multiply that by 11, 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:03.720 which is the ratio of the 00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:06.000 population of the U.S. to the 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.730 population of Iraq, that would 00:13:07.730 --> 00:13:09.910 mean 3,300 Americans would be 00:13:09.910 --> 00:13:12.000 dying every week, which is 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:13.600 just about the number of people 00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:15.000 who died in 9/11. 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.700 But that would be happening 00:13:16.700 --> 00:13:19.000 every week, weekend, weekend. 00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:20.610 How long do you think we could 00:13:20.610 --> 00:13:22.000 put up with that here? 00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:24.050 Well, I feel pretty qualified 00:13:24.050 --> 00:13:26.180 to talk about this, having been 00:13:26.180 --> 00:13:28.000 in Iraq for 10 days. 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:29.200 And I met and spoke every 00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:30.760 single day with different Iraq 00:13:30.760 --> 00:13:33.000 is from a different part of the 00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.000 Southwestern region. 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.200 And at the time, they were just 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:39.310 so happy to see, you know, to 00:13:39.310 --> 00:13:41.000 see the troops because, 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.000 you know, I saw the rebuilding. 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:44.570 I saw the training of the Iraqi 00:13:44.570 --> 00:13:46.530 police force, the ICBC, which 00:13:46.530 --> 00:13:48.000 is the cooperative defense 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:49.000 force. 00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:52.970 I saw work being done on water 00:13:52.970 --> 00:13:56.790 facilities, A school, A library 00:13:56.790 --> 00:13:59.000 , but okay, you know, it 00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:01.000 was a start. 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:02.690 And I think that, you know, 00:14:02.690 --> 00:14:04.380 exactly what you said is they 00:14:04.380 --> 00:14:06.000 're just fucking tired of this 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:07.000 shit already. 00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:08.000 You know, thanks. 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.170 You know, the Saddam Hussein 00:14:09.170 --> 00:14:10.000 thing was great. 00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:11.580 But now they're just flipping 00:14:11.580 --> 00:14:12.000 out. 00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:13.000 This has got to stop. 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:14.400 Every person that's killed, you 00:14:14.400 --> 00:14:15.800 know, six degrees of separation 00:14:15.800 --> 00:14:16.000 . 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:18.030 I mean, I know at least two 00:14:18.030 --> 00:14:19.800 people personally who died in 00:14:19.800 --> 00:14:22.000 the World Trade Center because 00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:23.000 that's how vast it is. 00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:24.590 You know, and you said if you 00:14:24.590 --> 00:14:26.620 have 300 people a week dying, 00:14:26.620 --> 00:14:28.500 then just keep multiplying that 00:14:28.500 --> 00:14:30.090 by six and to the, you know, 00:14:30.090 --> 00:14:32.000 whatever factor X it has to be. 00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:33.710 And everyone, you know, is 00:14:33.710 --> 00:14:35.000 affected by this. 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:36.000 Yeah. 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:37.000 Yeah. 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:38.000 I don't know. 00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:40.400 I mean, you know, they always 00:14:40.400 --> 00:14:42.850 say, you know, Kerry doesn't 00:14:42.850 --> 00:14:45.000 have a plan to get us out. 00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.400 And I would, you know, let's 00:14:46.400 --> 00:14:47.790 have a serious, first of all, 00:14:47.790 --> 00:14:49.560 you know, how could, if Kerry 00:14:49.560 --> 00:14:51.310 had a plan, it's like he's kind 00:14:51.310 --> 00:14:52.800 of like in a situation. 00:14:52.800 --> 00:14:53.950 Let's suppose he did have a 00:14:53.950 --> 00:14:54.920 plan to get us out. 00:14:54.920 --> 00:14:56.280 It would be irresponsible for 00:14:56.280 --> 00:14:57.800 him to talk about it publicly. 00:14:57.800 --> 00:14:58.800 Yeah, of course. 00:14:58.800 --> 00:14:59.680 You know, he's not the 00:14:59.680 --> 00:15:00.300 president. 00:15:00.300 --> 00:15:01.880 And so basically it would be 00:15:01.880 --> 00:15:03.800 the government if he did this. 00:15:03.800 --> 00:15:05.830 Yeah, Bush gives him so much 00:15:05.830 --> 00:15:07.370 shit for having voted in favor 00:15:07.370 --> 00:15:09.440 of it, but, you know, he voted 00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:10.720 to support the president. 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:12.090 So it's like you're complaining 00:15:12.090 --> 00:15:13.320 because I supported you. 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:14.320 I mean, geez. 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:15.320 Yeah. 00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:16.320 Yeah. 00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:17.320 I don't know. 00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:18.320 It's all fucked up. 00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:19.560 The United States isn't making 00:15:19.560 --> 00:15:20.540 decisions in any kind of a 00:15:20.540 --> 00:15:21.400 reasonable way. 00:15:21.400 --> 00:15:23.400 And, you know, the concern is 00:15:23.400 --> 00:15:25.020 that our army is being dec 00:15:25.020 --> 00:15:26.440 imated right now. 00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:27.600 And that, you know, give it, 00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:28.800 give it a little bit longer. 00:15:28.800 --> 00:15:30.440 Basically, we just simply won't 00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:32.160 be the superpower we once were. 00:15:32.160 --> 00:15:33.980 And whether that's good or bad 00:15:33.980 --> 00:15:35.400 is another question. 00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:36.760 We certainly won't be the super 00:15:36.760 --> 00:15:38.040 financial power, that's for 00:15:38.040 --> 00:15:38.520 sure. 00:15:38.520 --> 00:15:40.730 No, we're spending our wealth 00:15:40.730 --> 00:15:41.720 right now. 00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:43.330 And the only thing we have left 00:15:43.330 --> 00:15:45.050 , and this is the scary thing, 00:15:45.050 --> 00:15:46.280 the only thing we have 00:15:46.280 --> 00:15:48.280 left are the nukes. 00:15:48.280 --> 00:15:49.790 And the world doesn't want a 00:15:49.790 --> 00:15:51.450 world where the United States 00:15:51.450 --> 00:15:53.040 only has one option, which 00:15:53.040 --> 00:15:54.520 is to push the button. 00:15:54.520 --> 00:15:56.220 Because, you know, especially 00:15:56.220 --> 00:15:57.880 with a guy like Bush who really 00:15:57.880 --> 00:15:59.040 has not, it seems like the 00:15:59.040 --> 00:16:00.470 kind of guy who could do it, 00:16:00.470 --> 00:16:01.160 you know? 00:16:01.160 --> 00:16:02.160 Yeah. 00:16:02.160 --> 00:16:04.130 So, let's have fun with this 00:16:04.130 --> 00:16:05.160 radio show. 00:16:05.160 --> 00:16:06.350 You can tell me, you're bumming 00:16:06.350 --> 00:16:07.160 me out,

00:16:10.160 --> 00:16:11.160 You're bumming me out. 00:16:11.160 --> 00:16:12.030 All right, all right, all right 00:16:12.030 --> 00:16:12.160 . 00:16:12.160 --> 00:16:13.160 Let's play your song. 00:16:13.160 --> 00:16:14.160 Oh, I have good news. 00:16:14.160 --> 00:16:15.160 I have good news. 00:16:15.160 --> 00:16:16.160 I have good news. 00:16:16.160 --> 00:16:17.160 We have a house in England. 00:16:17.160 --> 00:16:18.160 Yeah. 00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:19.160 Whoa. 00:16:19.160 --> 00:16:20.160 How did that happen? 00:16:20.160 --> 00:16:21.560 Yeah, well, Patricia went over 00:16:21.560 --> 00:16:22.960 Monday morning with her sister, 00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:24.600 and they've been house hunting. 00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:26.070 And we'd already looked at some 00:16:26.070 --> 00:16:26.920 stuff online. 00:16:26.920 --> 00:16:28.390 So we, you know, we had picked 00:16:28.390 --> 00:16:29.640 out some candidates. 00:16:29.640 --> 00:16:30.420 And as she called me last night 00:16:30.420 --> 00:16:31.290 , she said, "Well, I'm going to 00:16:31.290 --> 00:16:32.120 look on the inside tomorrow 00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:33.120 morning." 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:34.430 And this morning she called, 00:16:34.430 --> 00:16:35.360 and we got a house. 00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:38.330 So beginning of December, we 00:16:38.330 --> 00:16:39.200 move. 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:40.200

00:18:07.040 Absolutely zero. 00:18:07.040 --> 00:18:08.330 Oh, that must be an email 00:18:08.330 --> 00:18:09.000 problem. 00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:11.440 Well, that's part of it. 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:12.980 You sort of have this, maybe I 00:18:12.980 --> 00:18:14.460 didn't take a bath or maybe it 00:18:14.460 --> 00:18:15.760 was something I said. 00:18:15.760 --> 00:18:22.760 You know what I mean? 00:18:22.760 --> 00:18:23.760 It's like, he's watching. 00:18:23.760 --> 00:18:24.760 Go read real scripting news. 00:18:24.760 --> 00:18:25.760 Fuck, what did I say? 00:18:25.760 --> 00:18:26.760 Yeah, what did I say? 00:18:26.760 --> 00:18:27.760 I mean, anything unusually. 00:18:27.760 --> 00:18:28.500 You were talking about Scoble's 00:18:28.500 --> 00:18:28.760 boss. 00:18:28.760 --> 00:18:29.760 That's what it was, man. 00:18:29.760 --> 00:18:30.760 That's from last time. 00:18:30.760 --> 00:18:31.760 It probably was. 00:18:31.760 --> 00:18:32.760 Yeah, Scoble's boss. 00:18:32.760 --> 00:18:33.900 Anyway, and so, you know, but 00:18:33.900 --> 00:18:34.890 it turns out there's some, I 00:18:34.890 --> 00:18:35.880 have to do something with 00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:37.460 my email because, you know, 00:18:37.460 --> 00:18:39.030 finally one of the guys called 00:18:39.030 --> 00:18:40.360 me and said, "How can we 00:18:40.360 --> 00:18:41.680 not respond to any of our 00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:42.360 emails?" 00:18:42.360 --> 00:18:44.200 And I go, "Well, well, that's a 00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:44.960 relief." 00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:46.800 And they can hear that, you 00:18:46.800 --> 00:18:48.560 know, I have a future. 00:18:48.560 --> 00:18:50.900 And Microsoft determines that 00:18:50.900 --> 00:18:52.970 whether you have a future or 00:18:52.970 --> 00:18:53.560 not? 00:18:53.560 --> 00:18:54.560 No, of course not. 00:18:54.560 --> 00:18:56.060 I'm just being a little facet 00:18:56.060 --> 00:18:56.560 ious. 00:18:56.560 --> 00:18:59.090 But, you know, it's a weird 00:18:59.090 --> 00:19:01.660 situation where on the whole 00:19:01.660 --> 00:19:03.600 they're sort of like the 00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:04.080 monster 00:19:04.080 --> 00:19:05.750 company in the technology 00:19:05.750 --> 00:19:07.880 industry, but as individuals, 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:09.760 they can be very, you know, 00:19:09.760 --> 00:19:09.760 very 00:19:09.760 --> 00:19:11.160 cool people to hang out with. 00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:12.620 I mean, it's been through a lot 00:19:12.620 --> 00:19:13.360 , you know. 00:19:13.360 --> 00:19:14.760 So,

00:21:15.670 I think we were talking about 00:21:15.670 --> 00:21:17.710 the swift boat veterans for 00:21:17.710 --> 00:21:20.360 truth and whether or not George 00:21:20.360 --> 00:21:21.550 Bush actually has to go to the 00:21:21.550 --> 00:21:22.360 National Guard. 00:21:22.360 --> 00:21:23.360 No, please. 00:21:23.360 --> 00:21:24.360 Please. 00:21:24.360 --> 00:21:25.360 Let's talk about that forever. 00:21:25.360 --> 00:21:26.360 No, please. 00:21:26.360 --> 00:21:27.360 No, let's not. 00:21:27.360 --> 00:21:28.360 Let's not. 00:21:28.360 --> 00:21:30.040 Well, we were talking about 00:21:30.040 --> 00:21:32.080 Scott Rosenberg's description 00:21:32.080 --> 00:21:34.360 of his session, which was. 00:21:34.360 --> 00:21:35.360 For BlagerCon. 00:21:35.360 --> 00:21:36.670 For BlagerCon called Border 00:21:36.670 --> 00:21:37.360 Crossings. 00:21:37.360 --> 00:21:39.260 And of course I mentioned that 00:21:39.260 --> 00:21:40.990 really to sort of drop a hint 00:21:40.990 --> 00:21:42.360 to you that it's, we really 00:21:42.360 --> 00:21:43.430 need to go in on the 00:21:43.430 --> 00:21:45.540 description for your session at 00:21:45.540 --> 00:21:46.360 BlagerCon. 00:21:46.360 --> 00:21:48.220 And what I was thinking is it, 00:21:48.220 --> 00:21:49.740 is it not appropriate to do 00:21:49.740 --> 00:21:51.360 that on trade secrets? 00:21:51.360 --> 00:21:53.480 Well, it's totally appropriate 00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:55.360 to do it wherever you want. 00:21:55.360 --> 00:21:57.390 Whatever form you want to do it 00:21:57.390 --> 00:21:59.040 in, but it's got to end up 00:21:59.040 --> 00:22:00.840 being a blog post on www.blager 00:22:00.840 --> 00:22:01.360 con.org. 00:22:01.360 --> 00:22:04.360 Yeah, I understand. 00:22:04.360 --> 00:22:05.360 You know, yeah. 00:22:05.360 --> 00:22:07.220 I mean, I think, yeah, go ahead 00:22:07.220 --> 00:22:07.360 . 00:22:07.360 --> 00:22:08.870 No, what you're saying is would 00:22:08.870 --> 00:22:10.220 you please hurry up and write 00:22:10.220 --> 00:22:11.360 the description of the 00:22:11.360 --> 00:22:11.360 discussion 00:22:11.360 --> 00:22:12.360 you're leading? 00:22:12.360 --> 00:22:13.840 Or, I mean, you know, what 00:22:13.840 --> 00:22:15.300 happened with Scott wrote a 00:22:15.300 --> 00:22:17.180 description and I said, well, 00:22:17.180 --> 00:22:17.360 that 00:22:17.360 --> 00:22:19.640 completely lacks any passion or 00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:20.360 blood. 00:22:20.360 --> 00:22:22.210 And if I saw that description, 00:22:22.210 --> 00:22:23.570 I would never go to that 00:22:23.570 --> 00:22:24.360 session. 00:22:24.360 --> 00:22:25.710 Why don't you tell me what you 00:22:25.710 --> 00:22:26.360 think first? 00:22:26.360 --> 00:22:27.360 Right. 00:22:27.360 --> 00:22:28.460 And he said, really, you want 00:22:28.460 --> 00:22:29.360 to know what I think? 00:22:29.360 --> 00:22:30.840 And I said, yeah, because then 00:22:30.840 --> 00:22:32.270 people will get some idea about 00:22:32.270 --> 00:22:33.360 , you know, they'll start 00:22:33.360 --> 00:22:34.680 thinking if they don't agree 00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:36.030 with you, believe me, you're 00:22:36.030 --> 00:22:37.380 going to hear it from them, 00:22:37.380 --> 00:22:38.360 right? 00:22:38.360 --> 00:22:40.190 And so when you try to, so, you 00:22:40.190 --> 00:22:42.130 know, so that's where you start 00:22:42.130 --> 00:22:42.360 . 00:22:42.360 --> 00:22:44.360 I mean, what do you think? 00:22:44.360 --> 00:22:47.150 I mean, this whole idea of the 00:22:47.150 --> 00:22:50.040 blogosphere, I guess it's the 00:22:50.040 --> 00:22:53.360 blogosphere extending into 00:22:53.360 --> 00:22:56.360 the audience of the world. 00:22:56.360 --> 00:22:57.030 I think it's two separate 00:22:57.030 --> 00:22:57.360 things. 00:22:57.360 --> 00:22:59.530 I think it's almost unrelated, 00:22:59.530 --> 00:23:02.360 although it's totally not. 00:23:02.360 --> 00:23:03.910 Well, since this is called a 00:23:03.910 --> 00:23:05.590 blogger con, we kind of have to 00:23:05.590 --> 00:23:06.360 relate it. 00:23:06.360 --> 00:23:07.360 No, no, no. 00:23:07.360 --> 00:23:11.010 I understand what you're saying 00:23:11.010 --> 00:23:11.360 . 00:23:11.360 --> 00:23:13.250 But my perspective, as a user, 00:23:13.250 --> 00:23:14.860 I'm coming from a different 00:23:14.860 --> 00:23:17.360 place than from blogging for 00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:17.360 this. 00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:21.360 I mean, that's got to be clear. 00:23:21.360 --> 00:23:23.590 But we're using all the same 00:23:23.590 --> 00:23:24.360 technology. 00:23:24.360 --> 00:23:25.570 And we're just beginning to 00:23:25.570 --> 00:23:26.740 figure out how the two work 00:23:26.740 --> 00:23:27.360 together. 00:23:27.360 --> 00:23:28.360 I think that's -- 00:23:28.360 --> 00:23:29.660 Well, why do you say you're 00:23:29.660 --> 00:23:31.360 coming from a different place? 00:23:31.360 --> 00:23:32.910 Why do you say you're coming 00:23:32.910 --> 00:23:34.360 from a different place? 00:23:34.360 --> 00:23:36.730 I mean, because right now I'm 00:23:36.730 --> 00:23:39.370 viewing iPodder and enclosures 00:23:39.370 --> 00:23:40.940 and the way we're getting all 00:23:40.940 --> 00:23:41.360 this out there 00:23:41.360 --> 00:23:44.010 and distributed purely as that, 00:23:44.010 --> 00:23:45.360 as an antenna. 00:23:45.360 --> 00:23:46.760 And I'm sitting here, and I 00:23:46.760 --> 00:23:48.360 could be doing a radio show. 00:23:48.360 --> 00:23:49.510 I could be doing a top 30 00:23:49.510 --> 00:23:50.360 countdown show. 00:23:50.360 --> 00:23:51.860 I like doing this because this 00:23:51.860 --> 00:23:52.360 is just -- 00:23:52.360 --> 00:23:53.860 We can do whatever the hell we 00:23:53.860 --> 00:23:54.360 want. 00:23:54.360 --> 00:23:55.780 No program director is going to 00:23:55.780 --> 00:23:58.390 get mad at us if we sound like 00:23:58.390 --> 00:24:00.360 total baboons. 00:24:00.360 --> 00:24:02.030 But isn't that -- okay, in all 00:24:02.030 --> 00:24:03.900 seriousness, though, doesn't 00:24:03.900 --> 00:24:05.730 that have a lot to do with blog 00:24:05.730 --> 00:24:06.360 ging? 00:24:06.360 --> 00:24:07.770 I mean, for me, the quality of 00:24:07.770 --> 00:24:08.360 blogging -- 00:24:08.360 --> 00:24:11.540 When I started blogging, I 00:24:11.540 --> 00:24:12.970 immediately went and took a job 00:24:12.970 --> 00:24:15.570 at Wired because they liked my 00:24:15.570 --> 00:24:16.360 writing. 00:24:16.360 --> 00:24:18.700 And they said, "Let's hire this 00:24:18.700 --> 00:24:19.360 guy." 00:24:19.360 --> 00:24:20.360 And I said, "Sure." 00:24:20.360 --> 00:24:22.150 I thought it was like, "Okay, 00:24:22.150 --> 00:24:23.360 that's a move up." 00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:24.750 And then I learned pretty 00:24:24.750 --> 00:24:26.320 quickly, although the people 00:24:26.320 --> 00:24:27.360 there were excellent, 00:24:27.360 --> 00:24:29.110 that it wasn't really a move up 00:24:29.110 --> 00:24:29.360 . 00:24:29.360 --> 00:24:30.600 It was a move in a different 00:24:30.600 --> 00:24:31.360 direction. 00:24:31.360 --> 00:24:34.480 So it seems to me that this has 00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.860 a lot to do with blogging in 00:24:37.860 --> 00:24:39.360 that -- 00:24:39.360 --> 00:24:41.090 Like you said, there's no -- 00:24:41.090 --> 00:24:42.920 the whole freedom thing where 00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:44.850 there's nobody to tell you what 00:24:44.850 --> 00:24:46.360 you can and can't say. 00:24:46.360 --> 00:24:48.090 You're not trying to achieve 00:24:48.090 --> 00:24:49.900 some other results than just 00:24:49.900 --> 00:24:51.560 sort of like filling time with 00:24:51.560 --> 00:24:52.360 your ideas. 00:24:52.360 --> 00:24:53.360 That's what a blog is. 00:24:53.360 --> 00:24:55.920 Yes, so then I agree with you 00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:57.360 100%. 00:24:57.360 --> 00:24:58.680 And I guess it doesn't matter 00:24:58.680 --> 00:24:59.770 if you're using the same 00:24:59.770 --> 00:25:01.590 protocols and systems to 00:25:01.590 --> 00:25:04.360 distribute text or audio. 00:25:04.360 --> 00:25:05.360 That doesn't make a difference. 00:25:05.360 --> 00:25:08.360 Don't focus on the technology. 00:25:08.360 --> 00:25:10.020 Adam, don't focus on the 00:25:10.020 --> 00:25:10.360 technology. 00:25:10.360 --> 00:25:11.980 Because while you have to solve 00:25:11.980 --> 00:25:13.440 the technological problems to 00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:14.360 get anything to happen, 00:25:14.360 --> 00:25:16.740 ultimately it's what the result 00:25:16.740 --> 00:25:18.500 is with the person who is 00:25:18.500 --> 00:25:20.480 influenced by what you're 00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:21.360 saying. 00:25:21.360 --> 00:25:22.360 Right. Well, it's freedom of 00:25:22.360 --> 00:25:22.360 speech. 00:25:22.360 --> 00:25:23.360 Of course. 00:25:23.360 --> 00:25:24.760 I just want to talk some shit 00:25:24.760 --> 00:25:26.070 and I want to get something 00:25:26.070 --> 00:25:26.360 done. 00:25:26.360 --> 00:25:27.560 And of course, it's exactly 00:25:27.560 --> 00:25:28.360 like blogging. 00:25:28.360 --> 00:25:30.670 And the difference -- here's 00:25:30.670 --> 00:25:31.360 the difference. 00:25:31.360 --> 00:25:34.110 When you went to work for Wired 00:25:34.110 --> 00:25:36.570 , your profession probably wasn 00:25:36.570 --> 00:25:37.360 't a writer. 00:25:37.360 --> 00:25:39.360 A writer of English prose. 00:25:39.360 --> 00:25:41.360 You were a writer of code. 00:25:41.360 --> 00:25:42.360 No, absolutely. 00:25:42.360 --> 00:25:44.360 Right. No, it's a new thing. 00:25:44.360 --> 00:25:46.360 Okay, so here's the difference. 00:25:46.360 --> 00:25:48.360 I am a broadcaster. 00:25:48.360 --> 00:25:50.360 I am an audio guy. 00:25:50.360 --> 00:25:51.780 So this to me is like all of a 00:25:51.780 --> 00:25:53.870 sudden, the cookie jar has been 00:25:53.870 --> 00:25:55.360 opened and I have free access. 00:25:55.360 --> 00:25:57.280 And so I think I have a very 00:25:57.280 --> 00:25:59.360 different experience. 00:25:59.360 --> 00:26:00.360 And I can tell. 00:26:00.360 --> 00:26:01.440 I can hear people trying to 00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:02.690 figure out a format, how they 00:26:02.690 --> 00:26:04.640 want to do this, what is a blog 00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:06.360 post, how long should it be? 00:26:06.360 --> 00:26:08.360 Do I need to attach URLs? 00:26:08.360 --> 00:26:10.120 No, I'm coming from a very 00:26:10.120 --> 00:26:11.360 different van. 00:26:11.360 --> 00:26:12.440 I'm like, whoa, you know, 00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:13.730 finally got my own transmitter, 00:26:13.730 --> 00:26:15.360 everybody.

put all their code into one 00:29:21.130 --> 00:29:23.360 source forge project. 00:29:23.360 --> 00:29:26.170 And they even have BitTorrent 00:29:26.170 --> 00:29:27.360 working. 00:29:27.360 -->

00:29:50.360 --> 00:29:51.360 That's what I'm going to do. 00:29:51.360 --> 00:29:53.450 I mean, it's tempting for me to 00:29:53.450 --> 00:29:55.610 come in and say, "Okay, well, 00:29:55.610 --> 00:29:58.410 here's how you simplify the 00:29:58.410 --> 00:29:59.820 thought process here so that 00:29:59.820 --> 00:30:01.360 you don't get all stuck on 00:30:01.360 --> 00:30:01.360 these questions." 00:30:01.360 --> 00:30:05.360 But it never works. 00:30:05.360 --> 00:30:07.360 That never, ever, ever works. 00:30:07.360 --> 00:30:08.360 No, and -- 00:30:08.360 --> 00:30:09.360 Because -- 00:30:09.360 --> 00:30:10.360 Yeah. 00:30:10.360 --> 00:30:12.070 Because you have people there 00:30:12.070 --> 00:30:13.360 who want to get stuck. 00:30:13.360 --> 00:30:14.360 Yeah. 00:30:14.360 --> 00:30:15.510 Otherwise, if they do want to 00:30:15.510 --> 00:30:16.790 get stuck, they could get unst 00:30:16.790 --> 00:30:17.360 uck so easily. 00:30:17.360 --> 00:30:19.110 I mean, sure, you want to put 00:30:19.110 --> 00:30:20.800 multiple enclosures on a RSS 00:30:20.800 --> 00:30:21.360 item. 00:30:21.360 --> 00:30:22.720 Well, the spec doesn't really 00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:24.270 say you can't do that, actually 00:30:24.270 --> 00:30:24.360 . 00:30:24.360 --> 00:30:25.360 No. 00:30:25.360 --> 00:30:26.940 It doesn't say that there's 00:30:26.940 --> 00:30:28.730 only one -- and that's been a 00:30:28.730 --> 00:30:30.360 flaw in the spec. 00:30:30.360 --> 00:30:31.820 It would be nice if the spec 00:30:31.820 --> 00:30:33.660 said you could have many, or if 00:30:33.660 --> 00:30:34.830 the spec said you could only 00:30:34.830 --> 00:30:36.220 have one, that would sort of 00:30:36.220 --> 00:30:37.360 end the discussion. 00:30:37.360 --> 00:30:38.670 But you know that you can have 00:30:38.670 --> 00:30:39.360 one, right? 00:30:39.360 --> 00:30:40.360 Right. 00:30:40.360 --> 00:30:42.180 The spec allows for one, so why 00:30:42.180 --> 00:30:43.780 not just keep it simple and 00:30:43.780 --> 00:30:45.360 just have one, you know? 00:30:45.360 --> 00:30:46.360 Right. 00:30:46.360 --> 00:30:47.930 So some people need to make a 00:30:47.930 --> 00:30:49.460 philosophical battle where 00:30:49.460 --> 00:30:50.360 there's none. 00:30:50.360 --> 00:30:52.370 I mean, can you create another 00:30:52.370 --> 00:30:54.240 item that has no description 00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:55.360 and no title? 00:30:55.360 --> 00:30:57.360 Well, and here's the thing. 00:30:57.360 --> 00:31:00.830 The entire conversation was 00:31:00.830 --> 00:31:03.600 based upon the question of, you 00:31:03.600 --> 00:31:05.860 know, now that people are also 00:31:05.860 --> 00:31:09.360 using iPodder for BitTorrents, 00:31:09.360 --> 00:31:10.830 you should be able to have 00:31:10.830 --> 00:31:12.360 multiple enclosures. 00:31:12.360 --> 00:31:13.490 So you have the regular audio 00:31:13.490 --> 00:31:14.660 file and then you have the BitT 00:31:14.660 --> 00:31:15.360 orrent file. 00:31:15.360 --> 00:31:16.720 Whereas I said, well, you know, 00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:17.960 it's probably much simpler for 00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:18.360 now. 00:31:18.360 --> 00:31:20.170 Let's bookmark this here just 00:31:20.170 --> 00:31:22.360 to publish two different feeds. 00:31:22.360 --> 00:31:23.660 You know, it's a lot less 00:31:23.660 --> 00:31:25.460 confusing for, you know, trying 00:31:25.460 --> 00:31:26.950 to figure out what the feed is 00:31:26.950 --> 00:31:29.490 doing and all the issues of, as 00:31:29.490 --> 00:31:30.360 you just said, you know? 00:31:30.360 --> 00:31:31.660 Well, aside from that, isn't 00:31:31.660 --> 00:31:32.950 the whole point of having BitT 00:31:32.950 --> 00:31:34.200 orrents that you don't want to 00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:35.360 expose the original? 00:31:35.360 --> 00:31:36.940 Yeah, well, this is, of course 00:31:36.940 --> 00:31:39.360 it is. Of course. Of course. 00:31:39.360 --> 00:31:41.360 So, stick to your guns. 00:31:41.360 --> 00:31:42.360 Yeah, exactly. 00:31:42.360 --> 00:31:43.280 You know, when people start 00:31:43.280 --> 00:31:44.430 being theoretical about things, 00:31:44.430 --> 00:31:45.900 say, "Whoa, it would be nice to 00:31:45.900 --> 00:31:46.360 have this," 00:31:46.360 --> 00:31:48.530 there was this great piece that 00:31:48.530 --> 00:31:50.270 Frank Lakey wrote yesterday 00:31:50.270 --> 00:31:52.360 that I pointed to about a 00:31:52.360 --> 00:31:54.720 similar discussion that's 00:31:54.720 --> 00:31:56.100 happening on the photo RSS mail 00:31:56.100 --> 00:31:56.360 list. 00:31:56.360 --> 00:31:59.120 That's not the name of the list 00:31:59.120 --> 00:32:00.280 , but that's the problem that 00:32:00.280 --> 00:32:01.360 they're trying to deal with. 00:32:01.360 --> 00:32:03.910 And, you know, he's been 00:32:03.910 --> 00:32:07.040 through this loop apparently to 00:32:07.040 --> 00:32:10.450 its complete utter resolution, 00:32:10.450 --> 00:32:12.360 which is no resolution at all. 00:32:12.360 --> 00:32:14.520 And, you know, it says that 00:32:14.520 --> 00:32:16.590 there's a face-off between 00:32:16.590 --> 00:32:18.930 people who want to discuss eleg 00:32:18.930 --> 00:32:20.600 ance and keep putting that 00:32:20.600 --> 00:32:22.360 solution off as far as they can 00:32:22.360 --> 00:32:22.360 , 00:32:22.360 --> 00:32:23.530 and the people who just want to 00:32:23.530 --> 00:32:24.750 do some programming work today 00:32:24.750 --> 00:32:25.840 and get something out there 00:32:25.840 --> 00:32:26.360 working. 00:32:26.360 --> 00:32:27.970 Okay, those people shouldn't be 00:32:27.970 --> 00:32:29.360 on the same mailing list. 00:32:29.360 --> 00:32:31.360 Exactly. 00:32:31.360 --> 00:32:34.430 This really sucks. I mean, I 00:32:34.430 --> 00:32:36.950 had a call from, there's 00:32:36.950 --> 00:32:39.070 something going on with stalk 00:32:39.070 --> 00:32:39.360 ers. 00:32:39.360 --> 00:32:40.360 Stalkers? 00:32:40.360 --> 00:32:43.590 Stalkers. Total gear shift 00:32:43.590 --> 00:32:45.450 change here. I've met three 00:32:45.450 --> 00:32:47.400 different women here in Seattle 00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:48.800 , all of whom won't use their 00:32:48.800 --> 00:32:51.360 last names on their mailboxes 00:32:51.360 --> 00:32:52.360 and their e-mail addresses. 00:32:52.360 --> 00:32:53.470 Oh, because they're afraid of 00:32:53.470 --> 00:32:54.360 them being stalked? 00:32:54.360 --> 00:32:56.360 They are being stalked. 00:32:56.360 --> 00:32:57.360 Whoa, you're kidding. 00:32:57.360 --> 00:32:59.360 Yeah, and no, I'm not kidding. 00:32:59.360 --> 00:33:01.840 This is actually, you know, it 00:33:01.840 --> 00:33:04.440 is more to it than just they're 00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:06.300 being stalked, because that 00:33:06.300 --> 00:33:08.360 also affects the blogosphere. 00:33:08.360 --> 00:33:09.740 I mean, you know, people will 00:33:09.740 --> 00:33:11.670 not have blogs, or if they have 00:33:11.670 --> 00:33:13.390 blogs, there are certain things 00:33:13.390 --> 00:33:14.610 they can't talk about or else 00:33:14.610 --> 00:33:15.940 they'll be found, and they're 00:33:15.940 --> 00:33:17.360 hiding, you know? 00:33:17.360 --> 00:33:18.640 And they're not guilty of 00:33:18.640 --> 00:33:19.360 anything. 00:33:19.360 --> 00:33:22.200 That's, but is this particular 00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:24.360 to Seattle, or is it? 00:33:24.360 --> 00:33:25.760 I don't know, but I've only 00:33:25.760 --> 00:33:27.280 seen, I don't know, but I've 00:33:27.280 --> 00:33:28.830 only, it's only just tripped 00:33:28.830 --> 00:33:29.360 over. 00:33:29.360 --> 00:33:30.440 I mean, I don't want to, like, 00:33:30.440 --> 00:33:31.620 give too much away here, but 00:33:31.620 --> 00:33:33.780 somebody had their last name 00:33:33.780 --> 00:33:35.990 appear somewhere, and she was 00:33:35.990 --> 00:33:37.360 very upset about it. 00:33:37.360 --> 00:33:39.140 And that was what one of my 00:33:39.140 --> 00:33:41.400 calls was about in between, and 00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:43.680 , you know, so, there's been a 00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:45.340 lot of, I mean, we've been 00:33:45.340 --> 00:33:46.830 having glitches, people at home 00:33:46.830 --> 00:33:47.360 should know. 00:33:47.360 --> 00:33:48.900 We've been having glitches here 00:33:48.900 --> 00:33:49.360 , so. 00:33:49.360 --> 00:33:50.360 Yeah. 00:33:50.360 --> 00:33:51.790 What was the last glitch about, 00:33:51.790 --> 00:33:52.360 you know? 00:33:52.360 --> 00:33:53.360 I have no idea. 00:33:53.360 --> 00:33:55.220 I was smart enough to record an 00:33:55.220 --> 00:33:57.320 AIFF, which basically it writes 00:33:57.320 --> 00:33:59.790 it to the file, and, you know, 00:33:59.790 --> 00:34:01.760 a nuke can go off, and whatever 00:34:01.760 --> 00:34:02.750 is there is there, and you can 00:34:02.750 --> 00:34:03.360 still play it. 00:34:03.360 --> 00:34:05.470 I think the earlier glitch 00:34:05.470 --> 00:34:08.060 might have, there's two things 00:34:08.060 --> 00:34:09.360 that I found. 00:34:09.360 --> 00:34:12.110 One is I accidentally had 00:34:12.110 --> 00:34:15.130 kicked the adapter to the 00:34:15.130 --> 00:34:18.360 laptop out of the wall socket, 00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:20.000 so it was probably running on a 00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:21.850 lower processor speed trying to 00:34:21.850 --> 00:34:23.360 conserve battery power. 00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:25.360 That's probably a big one. 00:34:25.360 --> 00:34:26.860 Oh, that old problem, that 00:34:26.860 --> 00:34:28.360 happened to me all the time. 00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:31.660 Windows has this basic problem, 00:34:31.660 --> 00:34:33.360 same problem. 00:34:33.360 --> 00:34:35.090 Here's a problem you don't have 00:34:35.090 --> 00:34:35.360 . 00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:38.430 I checked Christina's computer, 00:34:38.430 --> 00:34:41.360 and she was running LimeWire. 00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:43.360 Oh, my God. 00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:44.770 So that's where the bandwidth 00:34:44.770 --> 00:34:45.360 is going. 00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:47.360 Yep. 00:34:47.360 --> 00:34:49.630 She's got her own little ISP 00:34:49.630 --> 00:34:50.360 here. 00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:52.660 Yeah, M&M down loads across the 00:34:52.660 --> 00:34:54.360 world, worldwide. 00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:55.360 It's Good Charlotte, man. 00:34:55.360 --> 00:34:56.360 That's what it's about. 00:34:56.360 --> 00:34:57.360 Good Charlotte. 00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:58.360 Oh, sorry, Good Charlotte. 00:34:58.360 --> 00:35:00.360 But they'll do I know about it. 00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:01.990 If you live with me, you know a 00:35:01.990 --> 00:35:03.360 hell of a lot about it. 00:35:03.360 --> 00:35:05.360 I guess, yeah. 00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:07.790 We could be thankful for little 00:35:07.790 --> 00:35:09.360 things, I guess. 00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:12.360 Anyway, so what else is okay? 00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:16.210 Well, we were talking about how 00:35:16.210 --> 00:35:19.730 not to get all wrapped up in 00:35:19.730 --> 00:35:20.360 development. 00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:22.270 In development conversation 00:35:22.270 --> 00:35:24.240 about stuff that she just maybe 00:35:24.240 --> 00:35:25.360 shouldn't be. 00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:27.530 Well, you don't have to get 00:35:27.530 --> 00:35:29.750 engaged in all the crap that 00:35:29.750 --> 00:35:30.360 goes on. 00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:31.360 No. 00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:33.220 There will be probably more as 00:35:33.220 --> 00:35:34.360 you go forward. 00:35:34.360 --> 00:35:37.100 There'll be more, which is, you 00:35:37.100 --> 00:35:38.560 know, but it's been remarkably 00:35:38.560 --> 00:35:39.360 successful. 00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:41.100 Your, you know, your evangelism 00:35:41.100 --> 00:35:42.360 has been very effective. 00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:45.020 And God, there's so much 00:35:45.020 --> 00:35:46.360 content. 00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:47.360 I can't keep up with it. 00:35:47.360 --> 00:35:49.360 And what's crazy is, you know, 00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:51.360 I went the last yard and then 00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:53.130 actually, I think I looked at 00:35:53.130 --> 00:35:53.360 that. 00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:54.410 You know, your virtual 00:35:54.410 --> 00:35:55.360 bandwidth piece. 00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:56.930 And the only mistake I made, 00:35:56.930 --> 00:35:58.640 because we've been doing, we've 00:35:58.640 --> 00:35:59.840 been, I've been at this for 00:35:59.840 --> 00:36:01.360 what, four or five years. 00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:02.360 Yeah. 00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:04.280 And the only mistake I made is 00:36:04.280 --> 00:36:06.200 I was concentrating on video 00:36:06.200 --> 00:36:08.130 and the machines aren't ready 00:36:08.130 --> 00:36:08.360 for it. 00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:09.360 We don't have the horsepower. 00:36:09.360 --> 00:36:10.360 We don't have the bandwidth. 00:36:10.360 --> 00:36:12.360 We don't have the disk space. 00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:13.860 You know, just it's too early 00:36:13.860 --> 00:36:15.360 for anything of any scale. 00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:16.870 And just, and even now with 00:36:16.870 --> 00:36:18.920 audio, we're just on the edge 00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:21.360 of being able to do this stuff. 00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:23.960 It also reaffirmation of the P 00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:26.670 ied Piper theory of evangelism 00:36:26.670 --> 00:36:29.360 is that you can't get anywhere 00:36:29.360 --> 00:36:30.360 by asking other people to do it 00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:30.360 . 00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:31.360 You have to do it yourself. 00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:32.360 Yeah. 00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:34.380 And then they'll, you know, as, 00:36:34.380 --> 00:36:36.140 and then they'll do what you do 00:36:36.140 --> 00:36:36.360 . 00:36:36.360 --> 00:36:39.150 And if it's any good, I mean, 00:36:39.150 --> 00:36:40.360 if it's fun. 00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:41.360 Yeah. 00:36:41.360 --> 00:36:43.230 If I had known that, if I, if I 00:36:43.230 --> 00:36:45.040 had known, I would have done 00:36:45.040 --> 00:36:46.360 that so long ago. 00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:47.570 Well, you know, you live in, 00:36:47.570 --> 00:36:48.360 you know, fine. 00:36:48.360 --> 00:36:49.360 Of course. 00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:50.360 Yeah. 00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:51.170 But you're, but it's happening 00:36:51.170 --> 00:36:51.360 now. 00:36:51.360 --> 00:36:52.360 So that's good. 00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:53.850 I mean, there were all these 00:36:53.850 --> 00:36:55.340 times like I did it with Chris 00:36:55.340 --> 00:36:56.360 Leiden, right? 00:36:56.360 --> 00:36:59.120 Last year and, you know, it was 00:36:59.120 --> 00:37:01.360 closed, but no cigar. 00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:02.840 It did not generate a lot of 00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:04.360 other people doing it. 00:37:04.360 --> 00:37:05.360 What went wrong there? 00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:07.360 Because the setup was good. 00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:09.050 You had a professional radio 00:37:09.050 --> 00:37:09.360 guy. 00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:10.360 Nothing went wrong. 00:37:10.360 --> 00:37:11.360 The stuff was great. 00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:12.920 I mean, you know, it's hard to 00:37:12.920 --> 00:37:14.240 say that that was a failure 00:37:14.240 --> 00:37:15.360 because it wasn't. 00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:17.790 There was a lot, it's to this 00:37:17.790 --> 00:37:20.720 day, I think those are seminal, 00:37:20.720 --> 00:37:23.360 you know, sort of snapshots 00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:24.980 in time of the development of 00:37:24.980 --> 00:37:26.360 the blogging world. 00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:27.360 Where did it break down? 00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:28.360 Why did he stop? 00:37:28.360 --> 00:37:29.800 Because I'm still subscribed to 00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:31.010 his feed in the hope that one 00:37:31.010 --> 00:37:31.360 day, actually during the, 00:37:31.360 --> 00:37:35.250 the DNC, two interviews came in 00:37:35.250 --> 00:37:35.360 to. 00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:36.820 Yeah, but they really, I only 00:37:36.820 --> 00:37:38.360 heard the William Buckley one. 00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:39.360 Yes, I'm sorry. 00:37:39.360 --> 00:37:40.360 It was William Buckley. 00:37:40.360 --> 00:37:41.360 Yeah, you're right. 00:37:41.360 --> 00:37:42.360 It was only one. 00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:43.360 Yeah, you're right. 00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:44.360 It was a crappy interview. 00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:45.360 It was a horrible interview. 00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:46.360 He was feeling drunk. 00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:48.150 Do you know, do you know that 00:37:48.150 --> 00:37:50.020 my cousin, my first cousin is 00:37:50.020 --> 00:37:52.360 married to Christopher Buckley? 00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:54.110 No, I didn't know that, but I 00:37:54.110 --> 00:37:55.780 thought William Buckley was 00:37:55.780 --> 00:37:56.360 great. 00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:57.360 He was awesome. 00:37:57.360 --> 00:37:58.360 He was drunk. 00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:00.250 I thought, yeah, Chris Leiden 00:38:00.250 --> 00:38:02.140 was Adam's, what were you doing 00:38:02.140 --> 00:38:02.360 ? 00:38:02.360 --> 00:38:04.390 It sounded like Chris Leiden 00:38:04.390 --> 00:38:06.410 had a pet theory and he wanted 00:38:06.410 --> 00:38:08.360 William Buckley to sort of go 00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:10.410 off on, you know, but yet I don 00:38:10.410 --> 00:38:11.360 't remember. 00:38:11.360 --> 00:38:12.360 What was it? 00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:14.360 I did some sort of aristocracy 00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:16.440 of the Republican party and the 00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:18.360 big turns running the world. 00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:19.820 And you know, that kind of 00:38:19.820 --> 00:38:20.360 thing. 00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:23.360 Oh, yeah, who gives a shit? 00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:24.650 I mean, I don't know what 00:38:24.650 --> 00:38:25.360 happened. 00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:26.840 I mean, I think that Chris 00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:28.360 would be the guy to talk to, 00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:29.360 but maybe we should get Chris 00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:29.360 on 00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:31.360 here one time and ask him. 00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:33.010 I mean, you know, it's the 00:38:33.010 --> 00:38:34.890 thing somebody was, somebody 00:38:34.890 --> 00:38:36.860 once said about Chris, I don't 00:38:36.860 --> 00:38:37.000 want 00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:39.130 to go like too deep into this, 00:38:39.130 --> 00:38:40.760 but he's good at it. 00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:43.080 He never helps people on their 00:38:43.080 --> 00:38:43.760 way up. 00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:46.260 And so the people that he 00:38:46.260 --> 00:38:49.470 brought in to the conversation 00:38:49.470 --> 00:38:52.760 were his regulars from his hard 00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:53.760 days. 00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:55.860 And, you know, once you've run 00:38:55.860 --> 00:38:57.980 through all the regulars, then 00:38:57.980 --> 00:38:59.640 well, where do you go? 00:38:59.640 --> 00:39:00.640 And there was plenty. 00:39:00.640 --> 00:39:01.750 There was also all the people 00:39:01.750 --> 00:39:03.040 he brought in from the Fisher. 00:39:03.040 --> 00:39:05.220 I mean, he interviewed Glenn 00:39:05.220 --> 00:39:06.760 Reynolds at Pone. 00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:08.760 Any of you? 00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:09.760 Yeah. 00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:13.760 And I really know. 00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:15.600 I mean, the thing was, is that 00:39:15.600 --> 00:39:17.510 it wasn't like a community, 00:39:17.510 --> 00:39:18.760 like what you're doing is 00:39:18.760 --> 00:39:18.760 different 00:39:18.760 --> 00:39:21.370 because you have made it about 00:39:21.370 --> 00:39:22.760 technology. 00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:25.020 And, you know, because, and 00:39:25.020 --> 00:39:27.220 that's realistic because the 00:39:27.220 --> 00:39:29.680 barriers right now are 00:39:29.680 --> 00:39:30.760 technological, 00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:31.760 right? 00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:34.050 But the opportunity is not 00:39:34.050 --> 00:39:35.760 technological. 00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:36.760 That's where it gets tricky. 00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:38.920 And then first we have to crack 00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:41.030 the nut technologically and 00:39:41.030 --> 00:39:43.210 then pass it off because, you 00:39:43.210 --> 00:39:43.760 know, it's 00:39:43.760 --> 00:39:46.650 going to, I mean, ideally I 00:39:46.650 --> 00:39:49.190 want a device that is perfect 00:39:49.190 --> 00:39:51.760 at every aspect of what we're 00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:52.760 doing right now. 00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:54.530 It needs to have a microphone, 00:39:54.530 --> 00:39:56.110 it needs to be very portable so 00:39:56.110 --> 00:39:57.280 that I don't have to 00:39:57.280 --> 00:39:59.150 plan in advance, but it's very 00:39:59.150 --> 00:40:00.960 likely to be with me wherever I 00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:02.750 am when I want to say something 00:40:02.750 --> 00:40:02.760 , 00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:04.690 you know, in this mode, in this 00:40:04.690 --> 00:40:05.760 environment. 00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:07.600 And it has to know it's going 00:40:07.600 --> 00:40:09.360 to be very well and it has to 00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:10.760 do what we're trying to do 00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:10.760 right 00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:12.450 now with, I mean, we're hitting 00:40:12.450 --> 00:40:13.760 glitches again, right? 00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:15.380 I mean, this is this process of 00:40:15.380 --> 00:40:16.890 wiring together, of mixing 00:40:16.890 --> 00:40:18.480 together two microphones that 00:40:18.480 --> 00:40:18.760 are 00:40:18.760 --> 00:40:20.250 on two different continents, 00:40:20.250 --> 00:40:20.760 right? 00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:21.760 Yeah. 00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:23.810 That means we need to convene 00:40:23.810 --> 00:40:26.050 some really serious engineers 00:40:26.050 --> 00:40:27.760 that know a technology that 00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:29.760 neither you or I know. 00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:31.480 I mean, we're not, I'm not a 00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:33.350 voice over IP guy would have to 00:40:33.350 --> 00:40:34.760 be here, you know. 00:40:34.760 --> 00:40:35.760 Yeah. 00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:37.760 But he really understands that. 00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:39.700 Yeah, I think really the big 00:40:39.700 --> 00:40:41.720 problem is we're just running 00:40:41.720 --> 00:40:43.760 into performance issues. 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:45.760 Well, here's another one for 00:40:45.760 --> 00:40:46.760 you, okay? 00:40:46.760 --> 00:40:48.820 Why can't you buy a mixer for 00:40:48.820 --> 00:40:50.760 your PC or for your Mac? 00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:52.700 Well, you know, a regular audio 00:40:52.700 --> 00:40:53.760 mixer that has an action. 00:40:53.760 --> 00:40:55.360 No, I mean, Dave, Dave, the 00:40:55.360 --> 00:40:56.980 easy, there's a couple of easy 00:40:56.980 --> 00:40:57.760 answers. 00:40:57.760 --> 00:40:59.900 The mixer is, yeah, that's part 00:40:59.900 --> 00:41:01.880 of the answer, but it's really 00:41:01.880 --> 00:41:03.760 the fact that I'm recording 00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:04.890 to the same machine I'm doing 00:41:04.890 --> 00:41:05.760 all this stuff on. 00:41:05.760 --> 00:41:06.930 And that's just because it's 00:41:06.930 --> 00:41:07.760 the blogger way. 00:41:07.760 --> 00:41:09.070 I could go out and I could 00:41:09.070 --> 00:41:11.090 easily spend $20,000 on 00:41:11.090 --> 00:41:12.760 equipment and have it working 00:41:12.760 --> 00:41:13.760 perfectly. 00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:14.960 But, you know, then I think we 00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:16.190 're missing out on a tremendous 00:41:16.190 --> 00:41:18.040 opportunity because I've 00:41:18.040 --> 00:41:19.760 already got the product manager 00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:20.960 of Audio Hijack Pro email, I 00:41:20.960 --> 00:41:22.370 mean, saying, hey, shit, you 00:41:22.370 --> 00:41:24.190 know, just tell us what do you 00:41:24.190 --> 00:41:24.760 need? 00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:26.290 What do you need for us to 00:41:26.290 --> 00:41:26.760 change? 00:41:26.760 --> 00:41:28.330 No, you're right not to give 00:41:28.330 --> 00:41:29.760 into that temptation. 00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:31.710 I mean, you know, then you have 00:41:31.710 --> 00:41:33.750 a compost, absolutely nothing 00:41:33.750 --> 00:41:35.760 if all that can happen here 00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:36.990 is you get to have a radio show 00:41:36.990 --> 00:41:38.330 and invite only your friends to 00:41:38.330 --> 00:41:38.760 produce. 00:41:38.760 --> 00:41:40.230 That's not much of a medium, 00:41:40.230 --> 00:41:40.760 right? 00:41:40.760 --> 00:41:42.760 Yeah, unless you have a show. 00:41:42.760 --> 00:41:43.840 Yeah, unless everybody has $20, 00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:44.760 000, you can't do it. 00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:46.250 You know, that doesn't make any 00:41:46.250 --> 00:41:46.760 sense. 00:41:46.760 --> 00:41:47.680 And there's no need for it to 00:41:47.680 --> 00:41:48.760 cost $20,000. 00:41:48.760 --> 00:41:49.760 That's ridiculous. 00:41:49.760 --> 00:41:51.840 I mean, basically an iPod, 00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:53.760 merge an iPod in the mixer, 00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:53.760 right? 00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:55.680 And I think you're a long way 00:41:55.680 --> 00:41:56.760 towards it. 00:41:56.760 --> 00:41:58.170 You know, in other words, 00:41:58.170 --> 00:42:00.040 instead of one microphone jack, 00:42:00.040 --> 00:42:02.830 give me, you know, 10 00:42:02.830 --> 00:42:03.760 microphone jacks, 00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:05.710 10 mini plugs, and each one of 00:42:05.710 --> 00:42:07.300 them has a switch which can be 00:42:07.300 --> 00:42:08.760 software if they want, 00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:10.950 that allows it to control the 00:42:10.950 --> 00:42:13.220 expected impedance, you know, 00:42:13.220 --> 00:42:14.760 so that I can plug in different 00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:16.760 kinds of audio sources. 00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:20.370 And then, I mean, why can't my 00:42:20.370 --> 00:42:23.840 laptop have five audio input 00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:24.760 and five... 00:42:24.760 --> 00:42:25.760 Of course it can. 00:42:25.760 --> 00:42:26.760 Of course it can. 00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:27.760 Right. 00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:29.370 Yeah, just no one's asked for 00:42:29.370 --> 00:42:30.760 it properly, I guess. 00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:33.230 Well, you know, this has been a 00:42:33.230 --> 00:42:35.860 perennial problem when we 00:42:35.860 --> 00:42:39.760 wanted to work with Kobalt, 00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:41.760 which had a really great... 00:42:41.760 --> 00:42:44.160 I mean, it was their server, 00:42:44.160 --> 00:42:45.760 the Kobalt Cube. 00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:46.760 Sure, yeah. 00:42:46.760 --> 00:42:49.190 That was part of spiritual, you 00:42:49.190 --> 00:42:51.160 know, we were on the same wave, 00:42:51.160 --> 00:42:51.760 right? 00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:53.230 But the problem with most 00:42:53.230 --> 00:42:55.290 technology companies, and this 00:42:55.290 --> 00:42:56.760 is what we have to watch for, 00:42:56.760 --> 00:42:58.320 find one that isn't like this, 00:42:58.320 --> 00:42:59.760 then let's work with them, 00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:01.560 is that most technology 00:43:01.560 --> 00:43:03.450 companies have a very low 00:43:03.450 --> 00:43:04.760 opinion of users. 00:43:04.760 --> 00:43:06.520 And so, you know, when we 00:43:06.520 --> 00:43:08.270 contacted them, they had to put 00:43:08.270 --> 00:43:08.760 us in a box. 00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:10.660 Either we were competitors or 00:43:10.660 --> 00:43:11.760 we were users. 00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:13.440 In either case, they didn't 00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:15.760 want to work with us, you know. 00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:17.210 If we're users, well, you know, 00:43:17.210 --> 00:43:18.470 if you check out our latest 00:43:18.470 --> 00:43:19.540 product and we're working on 00:43:19.540 --> 00:43:19.760 this and that, 00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:21.150 you know, you'll love it when 00:43:21.150 --> 00:43:22.980 you see it, but frankly, we don 00:43:22.980 --> 00:43:24.760 't care what you want, right? 00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:26.510 And if you're competitors, I 00:43:26.510 --> 00:43:28.120 would give you more to stand 00:43:28.120 --> 00:43:28.760 for you. 00:43:28.760 --> 00:43:29.760 But we were neither. 00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:31.200 We were developers, like very 00:43:31.200 --> 00:43:32.520 much like the iPod stuff that 00:43:32.520 --> 00:43:34.250 you're doing right now, iPod or 00:43:34.250 --> 00:43:34.760 stuff. 00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:37.830 And if somebody wants to, I 00:43:37.830 --> 00:43:39.630 mean, I offered to work with 00:43:39.630 --> 00:43:40.760 Sun on this basis, 00:43:40.760 --> 00:43:42.410 but what we need is we need to 00:43:42.410 --> 00:43:44.050 have somebody who joins our 00:43:44.050 --> 00:43:44.760 community, 00:43:44.760 --> 00:43:46.260 who doesn't throw their weight 00:43:46.260 --> 00:43:47.320 around, who does a lot of 00:43:47.320 --> 00:43:47.760 listening, 00:43:47.760 --> 00:43:50.010 and then puzzles it out with us 00:43:50.010 --> 00:43:51.760 when at the time when, you know 00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:51.760 , it says, 00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:53.460 "Okay, I think we understand 00:43:53.460 --> 00:43:55.330 what the needs are now, and we 00:43:55.330 --> 00:43:57.380 'll just actually do it for you 00:43:57.380 --> 00:43:57.760 ." 00:43:57.760 --> 00:43:59.080 And it's funny, I had an 00:43:59.080 --> 00:44:00.920 interesting conversation with 00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:01.760 Dave Luberts. 00:44:01.760 --> 00:44:03.160 Basically, we seem to be 00:44:03.160 --> 00:44:04.440 getting a development 00:44:04.440 --> 00:44:06.140 organization together about 00:44:06.140 --> 00:44:06.760 Frontier. 00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:09.090 And I hope that we're going to 00:44:09.090 --> 00:44:11.070 at least try to solve some of 00:44:11.070 --> 00:44:11.760 these problems 00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:13.190 from a commercial development 00:44:13.190 --> 00:44:13.760 standpoint, 00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:15.710 because we've actually got a 00:44:15.710 --> 00:44:17.560 few commercial developers 00:44:17.560 --> 00:44:18.760 floating around. 00:44:18.760 --> 00:44:21.680 And I was explaining to Dave 00:44:21.680 --> 00:44:23.760 what's needed here, 00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:25.520 and Dave worked on the Word 00:44:25.520 --> 00:44:27.320 team at Microsoft going back to 00:44:27.320 --> 00:44:29.350 , I think, like Word 1 in the ' 00:44:29.350 --> 00:44:29.760 80s, 00:44:29.760 --> 00:44:31.760 and stayed through like Word 5. 00:44:31.760 --> 00:44:33.800 And you know, while Word gets a 00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:35.370 lot of people, you know, sort 00:44:35.370 --> 00:44:36.590 of snickering when you say Word 00:44:36.590 --> 00:44:36.760 , 00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:38.970 well, you know, it actually was 00:44:38.970 --> 00:44:40.760 productized a lot of times, 00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:42.730 and there was a lot of good 00:44:42.730 --> 00:44:44.760 work that went into it. 00:44:44.760 --> 00:44:46.830 And, you know, it's now the 00:44:46.830 --> 00:44:48.760 dominant word processor. 00:44:48.760 --> 00:44:49.660 You don't get to be the 00:44:49.660 --> 00:44:50.910 dominant word processor by 00:44:50.910 --> 00:44:51.760 being slouches. 00:44:51.760 --> 00:44:52.760 They were good. 00:44:52.760 --> 00:44:54.310 And so when we talked about 00:44:54.310 --> 00:44:55.540 this, there was a lot of nod 00:44:55.540 --> 00:44:57.760 ding and a lot of understanding, 00:44:57.760 --> 00:44:59.730 and just having somebody to 00:44:59.730 --> 00:45:01.630 work with to brainstorm at that 00:45:01.630 --> 00:45:02.760 level is good. 00:45:02.760 --> 00:45:05.940 And, you know, and so the idea, 00:45:05.940 --> 00:45:07.760 which you keep harping on, 00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:10.010 you're absolutely right to do 00:45:10.010 --> 00:45:11.840 so is that the installation 00:45:11.840 --> 00:45:13.760 experience has to be smooth. 00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:14.950 It has to feel like you're 00:45:14.950 --> 00:45:16.210 installing a real piece of 00:45:16.210 --> 00:45:16.760 software. 00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:18.680 And of course, after that, you 00:45:18.680 --> 00:45:19.840 have to not even have to 00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:20.760 install it. 00:45:20.760 --> 00:45:23.390 It has to be a device that you 00:45:23.390 --> 00:45:25.310 get that connects up to your 00:45:25.310 --> 00:45:26.760 laptop in some meaningful way 00:45:26.760 --> 00:45:28.060 that comes pre-configured 00:45:28.060 --> 00:45:29.340 because you didn't have to 00:45:29.340 --> 00:45:30.760 install your iPod at them. 00:45:30.760 --> 00:45:32.760 No, no, exactly. 00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:34.760 Oh, yeah, just out of the box. 00:45:34.760 --> 00:45:35.760 Yep. 00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:37.620 And so, you know, it's also 00:45:37.620 --> 00:45:39.760 going to be like a cell phone. 00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:41.820 I think cell phone has a lot of 00:45:41.820 --> 00:45:44.130 the features that this device 00:45:44.130 --> 00:45:44.760 needs. 00:45:44.760 --> 00:45:45.760 Don't you think? 00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:47.810 Well, I mean, you might as well 00:45:47.810 --> 00:45:48.760 throw it in. 00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:50.580 You know, now we're into spe 00:45:50.580 --> 00:45:52.760 cking out a device which would, 00:45:52.760 --> 00:45:54.760 you know, be the geekazoid tool 00:45:54.760 --> 00:45:55.760 of all. 00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:57.760 I like the idea of... 00:45:57.760 --> 00:45:58.760 But wait a minute. 00:45:58.760 --> 00:45:59.760 Let's time out. 00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:01.090 If you put a hard drive on your 00:46:01.090 --> 00:46:01.760 cell phone, okay? 00:46:01.760 --> 00:46:02.760 Yeah. 00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:03.760 Your cell phone. 00:46:03.760 --> 00:46:05.760 And you called me, right? 00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:06.760 Yeah. 00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:07.760 Wouldn't we be doing... 00:46:07.760 --> 00:46:08.670 Yeah, you could record the 00:46:08.670 --> 00:46:09.760 conversation, absolutely. 00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:11.420 We would be doing 90% of what 00:46:11.420 --> 00:46:12.760 we're doing right now. 00:46:12.760 --> 00:46:13.760 Yeah. 00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:14.760 Yeah. 00:46:14.760 --> 00:46:16.480 But, you know, I think the big 00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:18.140 advantage of what we're doing 00:46:18.140 --> 00:46:19.560 right now, and this, you know, 00:46:19.560 --> 00:46:20.870 also makes this type of show 00:46:20.870 --> 00:46:21.760 possible, 00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:23.510 is this is not costing an arm 00:46:23.510 --> 00:46:24.790 and a leg to set up the 00:46:24.790 --> 00:46:25.760 conversation, 00:46:25.760 --> 00:46:27.760 even though we're across nine 00:46:27.760 --> 00:46:28.760 time zones. 00:46:28.760 --> 00:46:30.810 So the cell phone would be very 00:46:30.810 --> 00:46:31.760 expensive, is what you're 00:46:31.760 --> 00:46:31.760 saying? 00:46:31.760 --> 00:46:33.370 Yeah, because then you're going 00:46:33.370 --> 00:46:34.880 to want to put Wi-Fi in there, 00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:36.200 and, you know, if you want to 00:46:36.200 --> 00:46:37.760 do voice over IP and otherwise. 00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:38.760 Yeah, I think it's... 00:46:38.760 --> 00:46:40.870 Of course it's a solution, but 00:46:40.870 --> 00:46:41.720 I don't think any cell phone 00:46:41.720 --> 00:46:42.890 manufacturer is going to say, " 00:46:42.890 --> 00:46:44.260 Oh, yeah, let's slap one of 00:46:44.260 --> 00:46:44.760 these together." 00:46:44.760 --> 00:46:46.770 And, you know, while we work on 00:46:46.770 --> 00:46:48.760 what everyone really wants. 00:46:48.760 --> 00:46:50.230 I like the idea that you said 00:46:50.230 --> 00:46:50.760 the iPod. 00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:53.410 Just give me 10 ins and 10 outs 00:46:53.410 --> 00:46:55.780 and a little mixing interface, 00:46:55.780 --> 00:46:57.760 you know, switch or whatever. 00:46:57.760 --> 00:46:58.760 I like that. 00:46:58.760 --> 00:46:59.760 That's a very simple one. 00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:00.760 Well, somebody could do that. 00:47:00.760 --> 00:47:02.670 I mean, probably somebody who's 00:47:02.670 --> 00:47:04.170 listening to this recording 00:47:04.170 --> 00:47:05.430 right now would know how to do 00:47:05.430 --> 00:47:05.760 that. 00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:07.370 I mean, it doesn't have to be a 00:47:07.370 --> 00:47:09.050 beautiful form factor to start 00:47:09.050 --> 00:47:09.760 off with. 00:47:09.760 --> 00:47:11.500 It doesn't even have to be tiny 00:47:11.500 --> 00:47:12.760 to start off with. 00:47:12.760 --> 00:47:13.900 It would be the size of a...it 00:47:13.900 --> 00:47:15.890 should have a very, very ample 00:47:15.890 --> 00:47:16.760 hard drive. 00:47:16.760 --> 00:47:19.020 You know, a good 60 gigabyte 00:47:19.020 --> 00:47:20.810 hard drive, so that you don't 00:47:20.810 --> 00:47:21.870 run out of space very 00:47:21.870 --> 00:47:22.760 frequently. 00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:24.740 It should be a fractional 00:47:24.740 --> 00:47:27.030 horsepower HTT server, so that 00:47:27.030 --> 00:47:28.010 all you have to do is hook it 00:47:28.010 --> 00:47:28.760 up to Ethernet. 00:47:28.760 --> 00:47:29.760 Let's start right there. 00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:31.760 Good idea, yeah, good idea. 00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:33.260 Yeah, no, that's a biggie, 00:47:33.260 --> 00:47:33.760 right? 00:47:33.760 --> 00:47:34.760 Optional Wi-Fi. 00:47:34.760 --> 00:47:36.760 Well... 00:47:36.760 --> 00:47:38.760 Now, you want... 00:47:38.760 --> 00:47:39.940 I don't know about things that 00:47:39.940 --> 00:47:40.760 we could give on. 00:47:40.760 --> 00:47:42.820 I mean, I don't mind if it has 00:47:42.820 --> 00:47:44.760 an Ethernet jack on it. 00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:46.760 That's optional Wi-Fi. 00:47:46.760 --> 00:47:47.760 Okay. 00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:48.760 I mean, yeah. 00:47:48.760 --> 00:47:51.760 Okay, maybe only Wi-Fi. 00:47:51.760 --> 00:47:53.760 That's probably better. 00:47:53.760 --> 00:47:54.760 Yeah. 00:47:54.760 --> 00:47:55.760 That's probably better. 00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:57.760 I mean, these days... 00:47:57.760 --> 00:47:58.940 And you also want it to have a 00:47:58.940 --> 00:47:59.760 number of outs. 00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:00.460 You know, you should be able to 00:48:00.460 --> 00:48:01.760 ...here you go. 00:48:01.760 --> 00:48:03.710 This thing should be able to 00:48:03.710 --> 00:48:05.490 record a number of sources 00:48:05.490 --> 00:48:06.760 simultaneously, 00:48:06.760 --> 00:48:08.840 or you should be able to...you 00:48:08.840 --> 00:48:09.510 know, when you dock it to your 00:48:09.510 --> 00:48:11.230 computer, then it becomes a 00:48:11.230 --> 00:48:12.760 router of audio. 00:48:12.760 --> 00:48:14.900 So therefore, you don't...you 00:48:14.900 --> 00:48:16.030 know, then it's making sure 00:48:16.030 --> 00:48:18.380 that you can send audio to one 00:48:18.380 --> 00:48:20.350 application and record the 00:48:20.350 --> 00:48:20.760 other. 00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.170 You know, so then it's kind of 00:48:22.170 --> 00:48:23.310 like this breakout box that I 00:48:23.310 --> 00:48:23.760 have. 00:48:23.760 --> 00:48:26.120 It becomes a...you know, it's 00:48:26.120 --> 00:48:26.760 basically a hardware device 00:48:26.760 --> 00:48:28.080 that adds that capability to 00:48:28.080 --> 00:48:28.760 your computer. 00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:30.520 So you can do a scaled-down 00:48:30.520 --> 00:48:32.370 version while you're on the 00:48:32.370 --> 00:48:32.760 road, 00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:33.860 which could also include ho 00:48:33.860 --> 00:48:36.130 oking up, you know, guitars and 00:48:36.130 --> 00:48:38.760 microphones, etc. 00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:40.140 Or, you know, just mics to just 00:48:40.140 --> 00:48:40.920 sit down and have a 00:48:40.920 --> 00:48:41.760 conversation. 00:48:41.760 --> 00:48:43.140 Maybe you can mix in a tune 00:48:43.140 --> 00:48:44.760 from your playlist there. 00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:46.760 But yeah, I mean, totally. 00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:49.110 And I think that's just a mod 00:48:49.110 --> 00:48:49.760 pod. 00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:50.760 A mod pod. 00:48:50.760 --> 00:48:51.760 What mod? 00:48:51.760 --> 00:48:52.760 What does mod mean? 00:48:52.760 --> 00:48:53.760 It's modification. 00:48:53.760 --> 00:48:55.760 Someone's going to modify it. 00:48:55.760 --> 00:48:56.760 I think... 00:48:56.760 --> 00:48:58.760 So is mixer the right idea? 00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:00.760 I mean, it's that... 00:49:00.760 --> 00:49:02.470 You have to be able to turn the 00:49:02.470 --> 00:49:03.760 sources on or off. 00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:04.760 Right. 00:49:04.760 --> 00:49:06.430 And control the gain on each of 00:49:06.430 --> 00:49:07.760 them, too, right? 00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:08.760 Exactly. 00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:10.090 And you have to be able to 00:49:10.090 --> 00:49:11.510 choose the kind of device you 00:49:11.510 --> 00:49:12.760 're going to plug in. 00:49:12.760 --> 00:49:14.920 A microphone has a different 00:49:14.920 --> 00:49:17.260 profile than a cassette player 00:49:17.260 --> 00:49:18.760 has, than a CD player has. 00:49:18.760 --> 00:49:20.760 Apple has all this technology. 00:49:20.760 --> 00:49:21.760 I mean, they... 00:49:21.760 --> 00:49:23.730 I sit here and I've mainly 00:49:23.730 --> 00:49:25.760 worked with Final Cut Pro. 00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:27.760 We did our reality TV show. 00:49:27.760 --> 00:49:30.050 But I've been in enough audio 00:49:30.050 --> 00:49:31.760 studios and the guys at Apple, 00:49:31.760 --> 00:49:32.760 man, 00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:34.760 they know what they're doing. 00:49:34.760 --> 00:49:35.770 Every single time you think, 00:49:35.770 --> 00:49:37.400 you know, "Oh, if only I could 00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:38.760 do this, it's there." 00:49:38.760 --> 00:49:40.520 And it may be too early for it 00:49:40.520 --> 00:49:42.000 to work well yet, but they're 00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:42.760 definitely smoking something. 00:49:42.760 --> 00:49:44.070 But as you've pointed out so 00:49:44.070 --> 00:49:45.310 many times, as you pointed out 00:49:45.310 --> 00:49:45.760 so many times, 00:49:45.760 --> 00:49:47.710 they aren't thinking about this 00:49:47.710 --> 00:49:48.760 application. 00:49:48.760 --> 00:49:50.190 The one we're doing right now 00:49:50.190 --> 00:49:50.760 ... 00:49:50.760 --> 00:49:51.760 No, they're not. 00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:52.820 You know, where was it I read 00:49:52.820 --> 00:49:53.760 the thing you pointed to? 00:49:53.760 --> 00:49:54.760 My MP3. 00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:56.760 I thought that was beautiful. 00:49:56.760 --> 00:49:57.760 What was that? 00:49:57.760 --> 00:49:58.760 It was...you pointed to it. 00:49:58.760 --> 00:49:59.760 There was this article. 00:49:59.760 --> 00:50:02.760 Oh, I want my MP3. 00:50:02.760 --> 00:50:03.760 Yeah, yeah. 00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:04.920 I want my MP3, you know, like 00:50:04.920 --> 00:50:05.760 Dr. Straits' song, right? 00:50:05.760 --> 00:50:07.490 I mean, you know, I want my MP3 00:50:07.490 --> 00:50:07.760 . 00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:09.970 And he was saying, you know, " 00:50:09.970 --> 00:50:14.110 Flash, you can do voice with MP3 00:50:14.110 --> 00:50:14.760 ." 00:50:14.760 --> 00:50:16.630 Now, to us, that no longer 00:50:16.630 --> 00:50:18.760 seems like a big revelation, 00:50:18.760 --> 00:50:19.760 right? 00:50:19.760 --> 00:50:20.760 Right. 00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:22.760 But to everyone else... 00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:24.320 Yeah, to Rio, to Microsoft, to 00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:25.760 Apple, they're all thinking 00:50:25.760 --> 00:50:26.760 that's great. 00:50:26.760 --> 00:50:27.760 Yeah, they're not thinking... 00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:27.760 the music business. 00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:29.210 Now, and you've also wavered a 00:50:29.210 --> 00:50:30.760 little bit on whether or not 00:50:30.760 --> 00:50:31.760 you have to assist on MP3. 00:50:31.760 --> 00:50:34.090 I want you to really...I mean, 00:50:34.090 --> 00:50:35.760 we have to have MP3 because... 00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:37.790 No, no, no, no, I recently...I 00:50:37.790 --> 00:50:38.760 thought I made it very clear. 00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:40.380 It's like, I'm sticking with MP 00:50:40.380 --> 00:50:40.760 3. 00:50:40.760 --> 00:50:43.080 Let me just say, here's why, 00:50:43.080 --> 00:50:43.760 okay? 00:50:43.760 --> 00:50:45.760 Because MP3 imparts users. 00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:46.760 We have choice. 00:50:46.760 --> 00:50:48.840 With MP3, we can put it 00:50:48.840 --> 00:50:50.760 wherever we want to. 00:50:50.760 --> 00:50:53.530 With any other format, you know 00:50:53.530 --> 00:50:54.360 , like the one whatever it is 00:50:54.360 --> 00:50:56.430 they're using, we're audible. 00:50:56.430 --> 00:50:56.760 com. 00:50:56.760 --> 00:50:58.890 I'm getting a call, but I'm 00:50:58.890 --> 00:51:00.760 going to let it ring. 00:51:00.760 --> 00:51:02.190 Whatever we're using, I think 00:51:02.190 --> 00:51:03.570 that's Apple's proprietary 00:51:03.570 --> 00:51:04.760 format or whatever. 00:51:04.760 --> 00:51:06.760 Now, we're using MP3. 00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:08.760 We have no control over that. 00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:10.670 So, there's no give on that one 00:51:10.670 --> 00:51:10.760 . 00:51:10.760 --> 00:51:12.130 Anybody comes to us and says, " 00:51:12.130 --> 00:51:13.560 Well, you can have what you want 00:51:13.560 --> 00:51:15.760 , but it's not MP3." 00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:17.320 There's the door right over the 00:51:17.320 --> 00:51:17.760 door. 00:51:17.760 --> 00:51:19.760 I hear by solemnly swear. 00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:20.630 Everybody raise your right hand 00:51:20.630 --> 00:51:20.760 . 00:51:20.760 --> 00:51:22.760 Put your hand on the iPod. 00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:24.760 Put your left hand on the iPod. 00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:28.760 And say, "We will protect MP3." 00:51:28.760 --> 00:51:30.760 MP3, I want my MP3. 00:51:30.760 --> 00:51:31.760 That's great, isn't it? 00:51:31.760 --> 00:51:33.760 It is good. 00:51:33.760 --> 00:51:35.510 We've got to get Knopfler to 00:51:35.510 --> 00:51:36.760 sing that for us. 00:51:36.760 --> 00:51:38.720 Oh, man.

It's not a 01:02:50.370 --> 01:02:54.630 big deal. I mean, it's nice and 01:02:54.630 --> 01:02:57.940 it has its place. 01:02:57.940 --> 01:03:00.360 I get movies from four 01:03:00.360 --> 01:03:03.610 different sources. One is the 01:03:03.610 --> 01:03:05.380 first run stuff in the movie 01:03:05.380 --> 01:03:05.940 theater. 01:03:05.940 --> 01:03:07.760 Another one is Turner Classic 01:03:07.760 --> 01:03:09.770 Movies, which is great, except 01:03:09.770 --> 01:03:11.740 I don't get it here, so I'm not 01:03:11.740 --> 01:03:13.590 going to be watching Turner 01:03:13.590 --> 01:03:14.940 Classic Movies. 01:03:14.940 --> 01:03:17.120 The third is like HBO, the 01:03:17.120 --> 01:03:18.940 normal cable stuff. 01:03:18.940 --> 01:03:22.940 And the fourth is Netflix. 01:03:22.940 --> 01:03:25.730 And they all do different kinds 01:03:25.730 --> 01:03:26.940 of movies. 01:03:26.940 --> 01:03:29.900 The first one movies, obviously 01:03:29.900 --> 01:03:32.860 , those are current with current 01:03:32.860 --> 01:03:34.940 stars and whatever. 01:03:34.940 --> 01:03:37.800 And same thing, more or less, 01:03:37.800 --> 01:03:38.940 with HBO. 01:03:38.940 --> 01:03:40.890 And Turner Classic Movies goes 01:03:40.890 --> 01:03:42.750 way back in time. It's mostly 01:03:42.750 --> 01:03:43.940 the MGM vault. 01:03:43.940 --> 01:03:47.500 So it goes back to the 1920s 01:03:47.500 --> 01:03:50.270 and even some movies from the 01:03:50.270 --> 01:03:50.940 teens. 01:03:50.940 --> 01:03:53.020 And Silent Pictures, the best 01:03:53.020 --> 01:03:55.180 part of Turner Classic Movies, 01:03:55.180 --> 01:03:57.470 I think, is the '30s, where it 01:03:57.470 --> 01:03:58.590 was kind of a renaissance of 01:03:58.590 --> 01:03:58.940 movies. 01:03:58.940 --> 01:04:00.570 And they have a lot of stuff 01:04:00.570 --> 01:04:01.940 from the '30s. 01:04:01.940 --> 01:04:03.240 And it's really, I think, you 01:04:03.240 --> 01:04:04.530 know, it's been an eye-opener 01:04:04.530 --> 01:04:04.940 to me. 01:04:04.940 --> 01:04:06.490 I didn't used to like that kind 01:04:06.490 --> 01:04:07.940 of movies, but now I do. 01:04:07.940 --> 01:04:10.810 And Netflix sort of allows you 01:04:10.810 --> 01:04:12.940 to get unstuck in time. 01:04:12.940 --> 01:04:15.470 And you can get really any 01:04:15.470 --> 01:04:18.940 movie that is available on DVD. 01:04:18.940 --> 01:04:20.940 But you don't have to own it. 01:04:20.940 --> 01:04:22.860 And I guess another source of 01:04:22.860 --> 01:04:24.790 movies would be, you know, go 01:04:24.790 --> 01:04:26.480 down to Blockbuster or 01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:30.490 Hollywood or whatever, Barnes & 01:04:30.490 --> 01:04:31.700 Noble or bookstores and stuff 01:04:31.700 --> 01:04:31.940 like that. 01:04:31.940 --> 01:04:33.940 And buy the DVD. 01:04:33.940 --> 01:04:36.590 But I don't know. I don't do 01:04:36.590 --> 01:04:36.940 that. 01:04:36.940 --> 01:04:38.400 I bought a couple, but it seems 01:04:38.400 --> 01:04:39.940 wasteful to own one of those. 01:04:39.940 --> 01:04:41.940 So how does Netflix work then? 01:04:41.940 --> 01:04:43.930 Okay, so what you do is you 01:04:43.930 --> 01:04:45.940 give them $20 a month. 01:04:45.940 --> 01:04:48.320 That happens. They deduct $20 a 01:04:48.320 --> 01:04:50.120 month from your credit card 01:04:50.120 --> 01:04:50.940 account. 01:04:50.940 --> 01:04:53.340 Re-interest, it doesn't matter 01:04:53.340 --> 01:04:55.940 how many movies you've watched. 01:04:55.940 --> 01:04:57.940 It's a flat fee of $20. 01:04:57.940 --> 01:04:59.870 And you get three movies out at 01:04:59.870 --> 01:05:00.940 any one time. 01:05:00.940 --> 01:05:02.690 It's like having a library card 01:05:02.690 --> 01:05:02.940 . 01:05:02.940 --> 01:05:04.050 And they send them to you.
