Gary, What did you think I meant about this? I was simply saying that some of us do not have all of the expertise and haven't followed all the threads (and I mean ALL of them) that we might need, to know what is happening with podcasting and the like. I have listened to a lot of stuff on Main Menu,on Mosen's site, on some tech podcasts, but I still need to get a regimen in place; for instance-- how to latch onto RSS URells and how to use the News Gator, when I have used Outlook Express but not Outlook, etc., etc., etc. So, when I say that this stuff sounds like an"inside job", where, on a public list people are talking about stuff that they know, I get frustrated and don't want to sound ignorant; does this make sense to you? I totally agree that this accessibility issue is slowly (unfortunately) being solved, but, let's try to tell each other what is going on, whenever we can! It was just a turn in the road, where I thought it was time to sound off!!
