Ok, so I've read all the ACD Sherlocks long ago. But I recently discovered the old radio podcasts on NPR--so I've been treating myself to 1940s radio broadcasts of these short stories, and I think stories that were not entirely what they were in the books either--new or added ones. The listening quality leaves a bit to be desired, but the STORIES are so wonderful alive and with a burly Dr. Watson (you can picture him, a teddy rosevelt shaped man, brusk and mumbling) and inanely esoteric Holmes. I recommend the podcast to anyone. There are tons of them on the web, but I"m listening to the podango version (http://www.podango.com/podcast... which you can listen to there or download directly from itunes (FREE!). Enjoy!
