small announcement

[Didi Ananda Ruchira]

Hello all,

It appears that a programme on BBC World Service Radio called "Health Matters" will be doing a spot on homeopathy. Abha Light has been contacted to talk about the growing popularity of homeopathy in a country such as Kenya. Patients, practitioners (and the director!) of Abha Light will be interviewed for it.

I believe it will air either this week (sometime on Thursday 24 Aug or after) or next week.

Stay tuned to BBC "Health Matters".
Sincerely,
Didi Ananda Ruchira
Director, Abha Light

Hi Didi,

Wonderful news!

I'd love to see the program, but may not be able to unless it's linked
from their website.. which gives me an idea- do you think you might be
able to get permission from BBC to reproduce the interview for
non-TV-broadcast informational purposes?

Maybe Abha could have your portion of the program available in
RealPlayer &/or WindowsMediaPlayer formats on a website for
viewing/downloading -could be a good thing in support of donations for
your work, as well as good PR for homeopathy.
Even if you couldn't get the BBC's OK, you could maybe record a
paraphrasing of the spot?

best,

It's RADIO not television - have you lost your vision?

Most of the BBC radio programmes can be downloaded, they hold them for about
a week. If for some reason it is not available on their website, let me know
who the producer is Didi and I will see what I can do.

Best, Joy

Dear all,
Thank you David & Joy for your support & suggestions.

And hey! I think it takes a great deal of "vision" to be able
to "see" radio. A truly elevated state indeed!
is there a rubic for that?

My own blooper is that Thurs is the 26th not the 24th.
Sincerely,

I thought that screen looked a little funny..

I guess that's sorta like cinema...
cine-sythesia ?
radiosthesia ?

Probably curable with one of the witchy rems.

Anyone and everyone can listen to this programme if they go to

www.bbc.co.uk/radio

and click on the World Service icon and then select "Health Matters" from
the pull down menu.

You should also be able to download it and store it as you would any other
data. But as you have Colin's email address I would contact him personally
if I were you.

Best, Joy
