Thanks Fuji, I do enjoy listening to Ajahn! or HHAA as they call him in the talk

This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

I wanted to burn it to a CD, but the message I get is that it is too large.
Any ideas?

It's more than 80 minutes, so you'll have to burn it into 2 CD's.
Thank you for the link.

as others are, so am I."

harm no one nor have them harmed.

Hi Chris
