Re-edited Show #76

Please note that I re-edited Show #76 tonight to remove a story that I now feel should never have been included in The FredCast. Please download the new version for the explanation as well as an apology.

My credibility and your faith in The FredCast are of the utmost importance to me, and you have my most heartfelt apologies if you were offended in any way or if you felt, as I do now, that I should not have included that story. Humans make mistakes and this was one of mine.

Thanks for your understanding.
