There were problems the first week making this archive. The first day of class, somehow, no archive was made so the class needed to be redone. Well, it appears that on the remake, no sound was recorded for the first five minutes.
I was giving you a really nice welcome to the course, but no one turned the volume on.

Be assured, I am happy that you are here and am sorry that you could not hear my welcome and introduction.

On the second day, we so much wanted to make sure that all was set up properly that the first few minutes were myself and the technicians making sure that all was working. We decided that you did not want to hear it so we trimmed that section. You can tell somewhat since on day 2 we start in without an opening page.

Please excuse our first week introduction to the course. We have learned from our mistakes.

All of the materials for the course are accessible from the course web page
