    <p>I also immediately noticed the massive overuse of continuers,
      acknowledgments and other response tokens. But I will say, I just
      tried this thing with one of our papers, and it worked very
      smoothly there, generating quite a realistic experience. The
      "podcast" really captures the majority of the contents of the
      paper accurately and even offers comprehensible summary
      descriptions of what happens in the data fragments :-O <br>
    </p>
    <br>
    <p>Quite fascinating, I must say! Thanks for sharing this, Roger.</p>
