[irised] Michael Breed Podcasts

[Michael Breed]

Hi John,  

    I checked the link below and I had a little trouble linking up... did anyone else?  I saw the problem, though... on my e-mail browser the last "greater than" symbol is underlined and is part of the link.  It shouldn't be.  Just make sure the link ends in .xml and it will work.  Thank you for posting the podcast to the listserv, John.  I appreciate it. :)  I apologize to all ahead of time for my bad pronunciation of Chilean names and a bit of ignorance on the tech specs of the AS-1, but I hope you get something out of it for your own classes nonetheless.

I want to draw your attention to  the podcasts that Michael Breed is 
generating.  Michael is an Earth Science teacher in Binghamton, NY, 
who runs one of the IRIS AS-1 instruments.  He's made podcasts on 
many subjects for his class (and others) to enjoy.

His Episode 23 - Seismology Rocks! 
<http://www.cvcsd.stier.org/Podcast/mbreed/Secure/Uploads/lgdtesci.xml> 
is all about seismology and his AS-1.

Michael describes below how to listen to his podcasts.

Enjoy,
John
