FC: Speaking at Stanford University on Saturday, April 20

[Declan McCullagh <declan () well com>]

[Also, David Coursey was kind enough to invite me on his AnchorDesk radio 
show for the last two weeks to talk about the library filtering trial. Last 
week's archived audio is available here 
(http://www.cnet.com/broadband/0-7227152-7-7230027.html) if you click on 
the April 1 link. The previous week's show seems to have scrolled off the 
page. Finally, I spoke at the University of Pennsylvania last week. The 
group that organized the talk says the audio will be available online soon, 
and I'll pass it along when I get the URL. --Declan]
