Thanks Joel!! Please keep the websites going, if it weren't for you all of us would have been left in the dark on this.
I hear that from time to time, but I'm not sure that it's true. I think news tends to spread by the fastest available way, and while the websites are pretty fast, word of mouth works pretty well, too.
What I think -- and sometimes flatter myself -- that I've been able to do, with a lot of help, is really just reporting on the issues, and doing basic reporter stuff: listening to people (I remember a conversation with Tom not so long ago, which began with him calling me up and saying something like, "I don't know you and you don't know me, but let's talk...")going to people, asking questions, and getting answers, and generally doing as well as I can to get and spread accurate information -- from an open and declared point of view.
I can't claim to be objective -- I do have some strong points of view -- but I do try to be accurate, and fair.
Which is kind of hard under
some circumstances, granted.

As you should, I think.
