Thanks.

We're doing 13 in all. There are five up now at www.scifi.com/cityofdreams,
the next one goes up on the 14th, and I'm hustling to get scripts out the door
for the rest so I can get focused on the other stuff.

No, there is no relationship between the two stories, and none was intended.
The conceit here is a radio drama on the web that gets interrupted by a couple
of guys who've hacked into the system to use it for webphone calls. There
CAN'T be any relationship because one is just a story, while the other is
"really" happening.

I chose a funny story because it played best counterpoint with the darkness of
what's being portrayed in the intercepts.

Almost certainly the web page.

We actually considered that, it's something I suggested to Brian, but we
wouldn't have been able to pull it together in time for the webcast.

Thanks...and you'd be surprised at the number of people who emailed me or Brian
asking if we were aware that some folks had cracked the system and could we do
something about it so they could go back to listening to the program....
