Congratulations on your new digital-commentator responsibilities, Richard. 

Listened to the whole podcast, your first in the environment, and thought
it was well done. You interviewed well, following up on points raised by
your subject (not sticking to any script) though you also had relevant Qs
in hand when appropriate for moving the interview along. You annunciated
very clearly, though i might say perhaps you might have been a little too
concerned in stating your questions clearly and in full so your listeners
could follow .. guess you can assume more intelligence in your listeners?

Overall an enjoyable and instructive listening experience. Thanks Richard.

As stated, is it true that due to a lack of pipe it's quicker to send data 
Asia>US>Australia, rather than, Asia>Australia? That does seem regretable.

Cheers Richard
