Hire me now, whilst you have the chance.

Since I started reading blogs, I have learnt a lot. I've had my horizons widened in ways I wouldn't have thought possible, and usually without even realising it. Blogs are like a hive mind – all the little bits of information synergistically coming together like bees in a virtual meta-hive-brain. And it's in this spirit of sharing wisdom and information that I'd like to share with you this small nugget of gold, learnt last night.
After a considerable period of cooking on electric, when you move over to gas it is wise to remember to use the little inbuilt sparker to light the gas as soon as you turn it on. Waiting for it to light by itself and then belatedly pushing the sparker button will result in a great big whumph of flame as the pooled gas ignites, taking the majority of the hair from the back of your hand with it, and your eyebrows if you're not lucky.
Hmmm what are you cooking? Is that the delicious smell of singed human hair hanging in the air?

Ok, my contribution to AKMA's project to convert Lawrence Lessig's new book, Free Culture into an audio form is now done and dusted, and here it is for your delectation – Chapter 8: Transformers.
Please don't link to this file directly because it'll kill my hosting. I'll put up a link to the various mirrors for this project that are springing up asap.
UPDATE: Chapter 8, mirrored kindly by AJ Wright and Chris Hodge at SunSite, where you can also download the other chapters that are available.

Being awake at this ludicrous hour has meant that I bumped into AKMA, and now I'm officially taking part in the transformation of Lawrence Lessig's new book, Free Culture from the written to the spoken word. I'll be reading Chapter 8. I'll post the link when it's up.

Of all the nights to find myself unable to sleep at all, tonight really is the worst, what with the hour and all. It's 2.30am, but I don't feel remotely tired.
And to make things worse, I don't even have any chocolate.
