Chris, is it possible for me to obtain a transcript of your interviews with Simon Baron-Cohen?

[DoctorBeaver (OP)]

You called me Eeth! My name is ETH - rhymes with breath [!]

[chris]

So sorry. Great question though, thanks.

Incidentally, I still have your mouldy bread question sitting here. I've been waiting for the ideal juncture at which to insert it!

You haven't answered my initial question, though

[chris]

Dear Eth (said so that it rhymes with breath)

Here's a link to the transcript of the Simon Baron-Cohen interview from earlier this year.

All of the shows from the last series and the present series are now available as transcripts (thanks largely to our producer Anna Lacey).

Thanks, Chris. And thank you to Anna.
I'd found the link to the podcasts but couldn't see 1 to the transcripts.

[DoctorBeaver (OP)]

Just a little point on the transcript (apart from the odd spelling mistake, which I won't even mention. Ooops, I have. Sorry).
There's a question from Alex about how many cells are in the brain. The reply  

quote:We think it's the old fashioned billion (1012), which is a lot

is a bit misleading. Shouldn't that be 10^12 rather than 1012?

You have moved your mouse. Please re-start Windows for this change to take effect

[chris]

Oh dear, well spotted. We'll definitely have to get that sorted out.

Thanks for your careful reading Eth,

Chris

Dear Neil

I'm delighted. Perhaps your wife was hoping that, in enabling you to listen to our stuff in bed, she might have discovered the cure for your insomnia. I dare not ask whether or not it worked ?

Incidentally, now you've listened to our shows, perhaps you could write a review for us on iTunes ?

If you visit the iTunes music store podcast section and click on thhe "science and medicine featured podcasts" then select us, you'll see that you can now submit reviews of our efforts. We've not, to my knowledge, been reviewed yet.

Happy listening

Chris

Thanks Neil, you're a *

And if anyone else has been listening to the show or podcast and wouldn't mind offering us some feedback, that would be gratefully received.

With best wishes,

Chris
