Air America archives?

the air america website says that audio archives "are coming soon". What's the big deal with that and why is that so hard?

anyway, does anyone know where archives can be found for air america? I thought I read in here that they could be found at a certain place?

I'm esp interested in hearing Howard Zinn on Majority Report last night. They would have him on a Friday night that I didn't get to hear.

These technically aren't authorized by Air America. It'll probably take more time for them to put out official archives.

2. It's a new, and therefore understaffed and overworked, business

Give them some time. It's hard to get all this stuff organized. They've got a lot on their plate, and I'm sure they're working to get the archives up.

They've kind of noticed the huge demand placed on their servers, and are probably caught a bit unawares of their own success. Likely, they don't want to put some half-ass archiving system online that would fail and embarass them; crafting a proper solution takes a bit of time, and that's what I imagine is happening.

5. maybe then should hire Ben B if it's too much for them

if they don't have the knowledge or expertise, perhaps they should hire Ben B (who runs White Rose Society) and pay him to perform this function for them.

6. I'm just saying, they've been around a very short time--it's still coming

together. They're rapidly expanding, putting on new programs, and just dealing with matching existing web demand... give em a few weeks.
