Uncertain, but it seemed to be compatibility issues.

What was incompatible?

I think it was a Shoutcast OS problem. But I don't know for certain.

Damn, wish I had been around and online to have helped out. If things were pre-recorded, I could have casted them for you.

You mean just for this year, right? Not forever?

Thought of you as I drove past just now up from Downers Grove.

No, it's done. It's been pretty close to it for a couple years now. It didn't happen at all last year, and the year before was ok, but just.

Mostly, it's just not fun anymore. So it's going to go.

If it's not fun, by all means it's time to quit. I'm glad we did it, and I'm glad it was fun for a number of years (almost made it to ten!) Like all experiments, it was a roaring success, because we got data. :)

Thank you so very very much for being the voice and the program director and the general manager of Radio Capricon. It was a monumentally cool thing that was everything it was because of you. Guess that makes you monumentally cool!

Thanks for doing it when you could. Radio Capricon make the times I could not make the convention tolerable.

I listened for about as long as I could. And in the past, we had it on in the car as we drove offsite to collect dinner. Thanks for trying.
