    hi – thanks for the great feed/site. however, i just wanted to flag a slight annoyance (which may have been my fault, but i can’t quite see how). for some reason this started playing on loading in google reader (their rss reader) even while it was not displayed, which seemed a bit odd/unusual (result being surprising unexpected audio from no apparent source). cheers, andrew
