Ponderance: PodWars

While the debate over "who created podcasting" has the same maturity level as a Chutes and Ladders game played by a few 5 year olds, it does provide insight into how history is retold and documented for the ages - as they say, history is almost always retold from the winner's perspective, rarely from the loser's side of things. If the facts about the PodWars can generate such heated debate (with a vast computer trail to gather and verify the "facts"), let's hope we always continue to be open to debate other "facts" about history from 200, 2000 or 2 million years ago.
