"Every person on earth is unique and special, but some people – maybe one in a hundred – are autistic. In this hour of To the Best of Our Knowledge we get to know a few autistic people with Asperger's Syndrome. We'll hear what it's like to try to live in the world when you have visionary technical abilities but also the social skills of a rock. Also, Oliver Sacks will tell us about the human brain and music."

Is RealMedia the only way to listen? If so, I'm afraid I'm going to take a pass. I've got enough junk installed on my machine as it is...nothing against RM, just that I'm looking to remove programs these days, not add them.
