I wish I had known you guys were so close. Oneonta is about 40 minutes away, would have been great to say hi. The "what is a podcast" thing is unfortunately all too common in Central New York. There isn't much focus on technology - people get their information from the stunningly incompetent newspapers and television and then ignore the rest. Kids use the internet for MySpace/Facebook and Flash games, and adults use their computers for email and solitaire. It's pretty scary sometimes seeing how so many amazing things are ignored because no one is tuning in. (Commenting on an old post… oops!) I wish I had known you guys were so close.

On the flip side to your post, I had a PAB t-shirt encounter too. When Sam and I were waiting in the airport in Toronto to depart, a woman approached and asked about the shirt. I explained about the event and she said her husband has several podcasts! I asked her to tell me about them, but was called to board the plane as soon as she began to reply. Great times @ PAB as always. Cheers Dave It was a true pleasure meeting you man. On the flip side to your post, I had a PAB t-shirt encounter too.
