More than thirty-two minutes of interview with callers. Excellent audio quality.

Thanks Dah-veed... the audio is there... and while we read Nomad or other web sites, we can listen to the show.

C Franz got me started with Mex, picked up his book
in '81 or so, provided foundation/inspiration to explore
most of Mexico, Guatemala, gracias. On second thought,
I don't know whether to blame him or credit him

It looks as though you can't play an asx file on a mac.

The People's Guide to Mexico

Was one of the books that I took with me when we moved to Baja. (The others, The Moon Guide, two of Diana Kennedy's cookbooks, two of Rick Bayless' cookbooks and one of Greg Nieman's books, the title I can't remember because I lent it out to someone and it wasn't returned.)

I was very inspired by Karl's vivid writing and sense of humor. He helped me to understand and embrace the Mexican culture.

Their writing was inspiring and funny for sure (in the day). They arenīt so inspiring in person. Their kids even less.

Now John and Eve Muir were a different story.

Wrench', this is the same J Muir? and I assume the same
from the VW repair book?

Lots of stuff you can't run on an Apple product. They want you to buy and use their apps only.

My Mac runs Windows better than my PC, but I have not had to use Windows for anything in a long time. Sorry for going OT.
