NOTE: This is Mark Sevi with plotpoints podcast...just wanted to say sorry for the last few drop days of the podcast.  Things have been a little nuts (pazo as my dad used to say) and it looks like I'm getting later and later with this.  I will level out, I promise, but I do think I'm going to push the drop from Friday to either Saturday or Sunday.  I just more time to work on it on the weekends since I teach three classes and do a lot of other work during the week.

Anyway, thanks for your support and patience...
