    Hi
    I didn’t see a post for the Greg Chaitin interview so I guess I’ll leave my comment here. I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the interview with Greg. The hour–as it seemed to do for both the interviewer and interviewee–really flew by and had some interesting topics. Thanks for making the interview available on iTunes.
