Across the UK, across continental North America, hand around the world, on the internet

by webcast and podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the Unexplained.

Thank you very much for returning to the show, and thank you very much for the email traffic,

and your messages of goodwill and support about my shoulder injury.

It's a long story, I'll keep it very short.

You might remember, on the last edition of the Unexplained, the last full edition, I

told you the story of how before traveling to South Africa, I slipped on the ice in London

and injured my shoulder very painfully.

But we thought at the time I hadn't broken anything, now I've had an MRI scan, and we

find that I have got a break, and some muscle damage, and potentially I might need an operation

for it.

I think we're all hoping and praying, me most of all, that I don't have to.

I'm having these cordless injections into the shoulder, and we're hoping that's going

to do the trick.

Wow, what a start to 2010, thank you for your good thoughts about that.

Thank you for the donations to the show, through the PayPal link at www.theunexplained.tv,

if you want to make a donation to this show.

There is a very good reason for it, and I'll tell you quickly why you should, at least

think about it.

Independent media is becoming, I won't say squeezed out, but it's becoming difficult

for those of us who are in the independent sector here.

You know, we're not supported by big organizations, big corporations.
