Actually, 9:00pm EDT is a perfect time for me. I'm in Central time.

I've had to order a new microphone. Testing on my Windows partition, I 
found that my current microphone isn't quite up for this. I hope to have 
the new one any day now.

If you listen to the Linux Action Show podcast, that's sort of what I'm 
thinking for our podcast. Those guys get a little too exuberant, to the 
point of getting silly. I don't care for that so much, but otherwise I 
like the way they work together.
