People have requested show notes, or at least notes about what time in the podcast certain segments start (as if each of our precious words was not equally worth your time!). I put that information in the entry for this episode on the Strange Assembly forums. I'm not sure how often I'll remember that/take the time, but in the future if you're looking for the timing information on an episode, that's the place to look.
