It's kind of funny a publicly funded program dealing with a topic like open source science would use a restrictive audio format that doesn't allow us to put an embedded link here on our site, yes? :-)

It was RealMedia and the only download ( at the time ) was another loader - so it couldn't be hosted here. Should I try again?

We just like to have things ( pictures, movies, audio ) in one spot for the convenience of the reader and their need to control the content and use their interface given the who they are and the topic was ironic.
