    Haven't heard any of it yet, but Doug Fabrizio rarely disappoints. If you miss the stream you can still hear it here:

    So the interview was pretty good. Fredston's definitely wise in the ways of understanding the avalanche/human interface, and expresses some nice encapsulated insight, even though some of it might not be earth-shattering news to some folks. For those who might have missed it, you can get a podcast here.
