3. The interview was from around 6 months ago - but still worth a listen.

(I think it might be a release of a longer version than the original broadcast.)

The reason I know roughly when the interview took place is because I was on my annual June dive trip when the disaster happened happened - so it as obviously a subject of intent interest to the 100-ish divers I was hanging out with. And the intense pressure at that depth is an extension of what we experience when we dive, so the risk was a lot more tangible to us than to the average citizen.

So Cameron's remark that we are coming up on a year since the disaster (and it's December) jumped out at me.
