[gui-talk] AFB Access World and Facebook

[Joel Deutsch]

Gerald,

Thanks. I understood that I'd be able to control my listening by using 
Winamp, in my case, but I was still curious how long it was , overall.

This podcast is about 73 minutes long, but using WMP or other media player
of choice, you can pause or fast forward through it as you like.
