    [Also, David Coursey was kind enough to invite me on his AnchorDesk radio 
    show for the last two weeks to talk about the library filtering trial. Last 
    week's archived audio is available here 
    (http://www.cnet.com/broadband/0-7227152-7-7230027.html) if you click on 
    the April 1 link. The previous week's show seems to have scrolled off the 
    page. Finally, I spoke at the University of Pennsylvania last week. The 
    group that organized the talk says the audio will be available online soon, 
    and I'll pass it along when I get the URL. --Declan]
