Hi Natalie,

This is a great addition to GUS, thanks very much!  I hadn't realisedthere was as much audio content on Gemini already as there is.

I'm really pleased that search for Gemini is already lightyears ahead ofwhere it is for Gopherspace, despite Gopherspace having a head start ofseveral decades!

Looking forward to further development of GUS.

Cheers,Solderpunk
