@leo I moved to the US in the late 90s and almost immediately discovered you and #katebotello presenting The Screensavers on #ZDTV. I’ve enjoyed watching/listening to your shows ever since. You were an inspiration in my time as a Public Radio broadcaster in CO. After moving back to the UK I found #iOSToday with you and @mikahsargent and still watch you guys via YouTube. Thanks for all those shows and good luck with your next chapter.

@lauren Wow. Every day is indeed a school day. 30+ years in the IT industry (minus a few I spent as a broadcaster) and I never knew of this connection!

@stux I sympathise, I really do. The US is a great country, which I lived in for years, but putting a price on holding your baby is what’s wrong with the healthcare model. Meanwhile, in the UK, the bill for the entire process from the hospital, is £0 (that’s $0 at today’s exchange rate).It’s also the reason why there’ll never be a British re-make of Breaking Bad!
