Update on the Current Delay

For anyone who might miss my comment attached to the previous post, here's the text again:"Thanks everyone for your kind support! I must apologise for having been so quiet for so long. Unfortunately I have been very busy with a number of things which could not wait and, even now, I have just completed 'phase one' of redecorating our kitchen. Over the next few weeks I hope to get it together so that another podcast emerges even though, at the moment, I have to fight a path through the rubble and building materials to even get to my Mac and I only have a very vague idea of where the mixer and the mic might be."

Dave Slusher has a Good Idea and an Invitation

***

THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED

First Transcript:

Que hay una mano invisible: el mercado que todo lo arregla. Mentira,
mentira, mil veces mentira. Claro que hay otros caminos y en Venezuela
lo estamos demostrando.

He tenido que aguantar las más grandes presiones internacionales, pero
no me importa nada. Si algún día me toca bajar al quinto infierno para
defender el pueblo bolivariano de Venezuela pues me iré al quinto
infierno para defenderlo...

Second Transcript:

Quiero hacer un llamado, y esto es quizás lo más importante que yo quiero decir hoy. ¿Hoy es domingo, ya?
...
Domingo, ¿qué fecha?
...
Catorce de abril. Yo, pues he estado incomunicado en las últimas horas
y no tenía ninguna información, tenía una angustia muy grande. Y lo
primero y más importante que digo a todos los venezolanos es que
vuelvan a sus casas, que vuelva la calma.
Ustedes venezolanas, ustedes venezolanos que me adversan, pues
advérsenme. Yo no puedo... trataré de que ... de hacerlos cambiar, ojalá.
Pero ustedes no pueden adversar esta constitución. Porque esto es un
libro para todos, es como el Popul Vuh, aquel libro de los Maya. El
Popul Vuh, el libro de todos, el libro de la comunidad. Tienen que
reconocer todo esto.
Y sobre todo algo. Oye, no se dejen envenenar. No permitan que los envenenen, ¡con tantas cosas y tantas mentiras!

What others are saying about Really Learn Spanish...

Initial response has been very positive. Adam Curry featured the first podcast on his Daily Source Code of 16 November 2004 and again the next day. Nick Starr
whose Mini Source Code gives us his own daily take on Adam's show (a
great summary when you don't have time for the whole thing) also had good things to say. Jim Corbett wrote about it on Eirepreneur and has been very helpful with emailed suggestions and advice. Tyme made some detailed comments on her blog - she's got the right attitude and is going to be a good student. Drew, from The Dawn and Drew Show, is enthusiastic because he wants to revive his dormant Spanish. Both Dawn and Drew think Really Learn Spanish is awesome! Craig Patchett wrote me and pointed out that if you know Spanish pronunciation you'll have no trouble at all in pronouncing Hawaiian!
Nicole Simon finds the way Spanish differs from English fascinating.
