user32913 that is one of many reasons why I prefer the new html-versions over the PDFs for most uses (the link is hidden at the bottom of the PDF-page)..

Dave, I have to admit...I love been inundated with links, gauges, and levers. I love to have a cockpit where I have everything in reach. For me breadth tops depth by far. As long as I am not using a mobile device... We definately need configurable skins. I will put this on the Labs-Page...

Thanks, amber. That 是...的-construction is driving me mad. Here I chose not to use it. But no need for another answer, I just wait for the Grammar guide (and maybe a lesson on it?). By the way: Before this gender stuff escalates: Of course I just write those sentences for grammar-related reasons. ;)

So ut should be: 女孩子应该理解我们男人是非常不同。 (甚至她们不了解不我们 - 没办法 ） Amber, that explanation is great. CPod should definately inject this into a podcast.

我已经着急了里里和张亮的故事完了。 有可能今天开始了季节2吗? And I feared the series was over...can it be that mean we are in season 2 now? 蓝天 我百分百赞同你的分析。 女孩子应该了解我们男人是非常不同。 小姐， 再来一瓶！！

Dave, in my current podcast-listening cycle I once again reached those early Intermediates. The repetitions, the slow speed, an all the English just drives me nuts now.

Lantian, it is indeed facinating how much vocab is out there that is *not* yet covered in a CPod lesson (and no, I am not talking about the moons of Neptune). I just searched for some of the terms and chengyues that Anne discusses in her blog... So there remains a vast terra incognita. My guess is that with about 2000-3000 lessons we are zooming in.

Jenny: Thanks! Indeed, the lessons here are a goldmine for idiomatic stuff - sometimes I just do not know what is grammatically necessary and what is idiomatic. That's one of many reasons the answers from you, Amber and John are so valuable. P.S.: You just taught me another English word: "bubbly"...
