    Will this be archived and/or available for viewing at a later date?

  4. Roy’s lecture will be available at the same URL as the original webcast above. We apologize for the sound problem in the live webcast – the archived version should have all the audio.

  5. I have searched the net and I should say I have not come across an article like this which is so easy to understand and learn the concepts.
