TWIBS-05:Take 6 Please

This Week in BS, we try to record the show. But as they say, if at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try, try, and try again. We finally get the show done, after several audacity crashes. We spend a lot of time on voting machines, and how your vote is not going where you want it too. Then, we spend too much time on twitter, and talk about how Linux and Microsoft Fails. All this week, on TWIBS.
