Older HPR shows on archive.org

This month 10 additional shows in the range 1-870 have been uploaded.

Since we don't want to upload shows without summaries or tags the old shows and tag and summary projects are now tied together. So we will be all the more welcoming of tag and summary updates submitted as described on the summary page.

Tags and Summaries

Thanks to the following contributors for sending in updates in the past month:
Archer72, Rho`n, Ken Fallon, Dave Morriss

Over the period tags and/or summaries have been added to 108 shows which were without them.

There are currently 114 shows which need a summary and/or tags.

If you would like to contribute to the tag/summary project visit the summary page at https://hackerpublicradio.org/report_missing_tags.php and follow the instructions there.

My former profession

You said something to the effect of me having a "teacherly manner", and that may be the result of my 20 years teaching at the university level. I loved the teaching part, but I hated the paperwork, and especially disliked to low pay. In the U.S. at least teaching is not valued at all, so I left academia to become an IT Project Manager, which is the main reason I can enjoy my retirement now.
