   	You didn't have a recorder ... well, I'm staggered, then.  I   
   can barely keep up with any interesting bits without some kind of quick   
   replay of what just went on.  Sometimes I try taking notes instead of   
   making fuller things, but I've never really got the hang of giving a   
   summary instead of a transcription.
