HI guys
I downloaded the interview from today, thought some of you might like to hear it. I rang ABC Radio National on the spur of the moment after a work colleague told me about the session called "Citizen Science" was on-air.
So, there was no time to rehearse anything, it was all off the top of my head.
And yes, I know we have 6 in the group, although I mentioned 5…I mixed up the fact that we have 1 in NZ and 5 in Ozland!...doh..

If you would like to hear the interview which only runs for about 3 minutes, go to ABC Radio National link here:
http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/lifematters/citizen-science/4373622

From there, select the 'Download Audio" button at the top, then after Quicktime loads, move the audio play cursor to the last 5% (about the 50 minute mark) or so of the audio feed.. I was the last one to be interviewed.

Sheeesh now he tells me after listening to about half an hour of it. :lol:
I came back here to see if you'd put a time to view from, phew lucky I did, it would have been a loooong wait. :lol:
Great publicity for the BOSS team!
She was really interested in what you had to say wasn't she, even going so far as getting you to give her the details to pop it on the web page! Fantastic! Good job Greg. :D

I've edited the RN podcast to just Greg's segment if anyone wants it.

Thx Andrew, I edited a version too which is abut 5Mb. Did you compress your version to get it smaller than that?

Greg, as a 96Kbps MP3 it is about 1.7MB. I can cut that down by reducing the bit rate:

587,069 BOSS_20121116_ABCRN_32.mp3
733,517 BOSS_20121116_ABCRN_40.mp3
1,026,413 BOSS_20121116_ABCRN_56.mp3
1,758,653 BOSS_20121116_ABCRN.mp3

Audacity strikes again, but it guess the quality takes a bit of a dip.
