I'm glad other people also find it hard to understand some of the babble in the discussion. I'm not sure it should be remedied or made easier though. Maybe it's not so bad to understand only the main points, it's a bit like listening to the radio. One of the difficulties is that John will often summarize or only acknowledge what Jenny has just said in Chinese so it is not always possible to infer the one from the other.

Sorry for my unimaginative username. The profile page coerced me into using a meaningless string of characters.

Has anyone tried the expansion section of this lesson? When I click on the sound files in the expansion page I get a "no data" box. Doesn't seem to be a browser problem cuz it works fine in other lessons.
