Thanks for tuning in again this week. We're still in transition. Migrating the audio files from this and all previous programs to a commercial server. And setting up a new commercial server for the Website. Sorry for the confusion. But we should have more reliable service as soon as the migration is complete.

This week we focus on two topics. The first is a non-event, the decision to delay launch of Japan's fourth surveillance satellite again. I provide some background on the program, and intend it to illustrate changes in how Japan's attentive public views such issues.

We then consider the results and aftermath of the Six-Party Talks in Beijing, including the substance of the agreement announced and the reaction from around the world.

As always, continue to send your comments and suggestions to me at RobertCAngel@gmail.com. I read them all and take each one into consideration when planning future programs.
