So it sounds pretty unanimous, everyone wants more frequent videos, long or short. In order to do that though they will have to be shorter. So our goal right now is to get the next episode out by next Wednesday! Thanks so much for all the feedback and all the love! We appreciate each and every one of you.

Everything....then a no match part was sent....Heh, we are looking to April 1st to relaunch SIGMACHI and next winter perhaps we will be in warm blue waters like C-Shell. One request..
