Last night I was a guest on the live, nationally syndicated, Computer America radio show. The show is hosted by Craig Crossman and Carey Holzman. Craig was off and I was on with Carey. It was a lot of fun. Carey invited me to stay for the second hour and co-host with him while we interviewed the CEO of Dreamauthentics. I was invited back to co-host again with Carey. I will keep you all informed when we work out the schedule. A very special THANK YOU to Barbra for making this possible.

(Unfortunately they were having problems recording the audio stream. If it does become available, I will post the link.)
