I tried to make it through the live show but I've got the "Viral crud" (quote from medical technician I visited yesterday) and had to bomb out. Getting ready to D/L the show. Hey may burn to DVD media and watch it on my TV. Keep up the good work, show is a good mix of review of stuff and always something new.
