CitizenX (Barbra) responds:
I will always link to the sites/utilities/repair tips that Steve mentions.
Sometimes I will check the chat log and pull links/solutions from there
even if Steve does not mention them on the show.

Please utilize the google search bar if you are
looking for something specific, and yes, correct spelling is important.

I apologize for my hiatus. I can assure you (the fans) 3 things:
1. It was due to circumstances beyond my control
2. I will do my best to get caught up.
3. I take my responsibility for these show notes very seriously.
