Also, more that a hundred people are killed after China cracks down on ethnic Uighur protesters; and on today’s Global Hit, the music band “HAL and the Big 5″ — formed on the Internet by artists from all over — and still evolving.

    The mention of the Vatican’s new radio sponsor (an Italian gas and electricity company called NL, if I heard correctly) was doubly ironic.

    The Vatican has done more than almost any other single organization in history to overpopulate the Earth which has, in turn, created the incredible and rapacious demand for energy as well as the attendant destruction and degradation of the environment. All in the name of God.

    Now they are adding insult to injury by seeking sponsorship from the very industry that has done more to destroy God’s creations than almost any other.

    I posted this here because there seems to be no category for brief items like the one I’m responding to.

    This new format makes it difficult to see the segments by synopsis. I heard a story today, didn’t get the title or a hint and preferred the old format where I could pick it out and listen to only that feature.
    Is there something I’m not seeing?

    You do great work and I listen every day (mon-fri that is)

      James —

      As with the old site, all the segments are available by synopsis. Along the blue bar at the top of the page, just go to “Listen to the show,” and then choose the date. The audio isn’t usually available until after 5PM EDT.
