I can't express how underwhelmed I am with this interview. 15 minutes to go, I'm turning the channel.
Awwww, come on! Don't you like Stuart's wonderful accent?!
Good show Stuart, you came across a a well spoken man of reason.
I concurr.
Do you have some specific and constructive feedback?
The only problem I had was that there should have been a sound check...levels very uneven.
Yes, the levels of sound are very annoying. We're trying to be as patient as we can be with the good folks at BTR (www.blogtalkradio.com) and they are promising a new control system soon.
I didn't realize you were so big on solar. Very interesting. Have you written anything on your assessment of solar?
Not yet.
I did not hear anything about fission power in your vision of the future? Surely it can scale up faster than solar.
My response is to ask: what did you want us to talk about, and if so, why didn't you call in? It's an interactive world, you know?
If you expected us to discuss the intricacies of peak oil, well, that's not what we do, we paint broad stroke so our readers can better understand what it is you discuss here.
Once again, a big thanks to Stuart! We enjoyed having you on as a guest!
This is one of those weird post-modern Internet things, I guess, where we do a radio interview and then chew it over by blog afterwards :-)
Yeah, Stuart, looks that way. Modernity does have its drawbacks.
Jeeze what do you expect it took me half an hour to get the damn thing working to hear and you want chit chat too? No problem with content, I think it did what can be done in a half hour.
If you have serious technical concerns, please tell me, I need to know this stuff to pass on to the people at www.blogtalkradio.com, so that we can better trouble shoot and make the service easier and more enjoyable for folks. So, if you had difficulties getting the stream, let me know.
Hello SP,
I did the download version, but I had to nearly constantly adjust sound levels depending upon who was speaking at the time: your volume was too high, SS was too low, the other speaker's volume varied too. Hope this helps future shows.
Hi Sean, thanks for asking. My main problem is age and not being of generation 'Blog'. And I don't think there is a remedy for either problem that a good slide down the other side of the PO slope won't cure. I was a child of the radio (no screen) and we had two knobs one for each hand, that's it, just one to turn it on and the other to go for analogue station changes. Then we would dance. Pretty simple Huh?
One thing that could be done, generally, is using basic English or giving a glossary of terms. As an instance of what I mean, I have never used a forum before being here on the oil drum and it was really a mystery how to proceed other than by jumping in. I couldn't find a place that explained things like thread parent subthread etc. I also didn't know how things should be posted as to order etc., so I guess what I would like to have on entering a site is a primer on basic procedures with glossary .
