An “encore presentation” of Spark 86
Posted by Dan Misener under Episodes
This week on Spark’s regular, over-the-air radio broadcast, you’ll hear an “encore presentation” of Spark 86: Digital forgetting, email salutations, and food pills.
Because we’ve promised no more podcast repeats, you won’t find this episode in our regular podcast feed. But if you would like to listen again, or check out any of the links mentioned on this week’s show, follow this link to the show notes for Spark 86.
We’ll be back with a brand-new episode of Spark on February 14, 2010.
Note: Eagle-eared listeners will notice that Pete Nowak’s net neutrality update from Spark 86 has been swapped out for Al Rae’s Facebook Mea Culpa story from Spark 72.

I am a first time listener. You mentioned transcripts. Where do I get transcripts?
I am the founder of Lingq.com a website for language learning. Our members contribute the learning content, audio and text, in all of our 10 languages. They either create them in their native language, or find them on the web. If there are copyright issues they just let others know about them so that people can import them for their own use. Otherwise these resources are shared with other members in our libraries.
Two questions. Where are the transcripts? Can we share them in our libraries?
You can register free of charge and have a look around. All content is available for download by anyone, free of charge.

Hello Steve. To clarify, we do not offer transcripts of _everything_ on Spark.
