hi Barrett -
hmmm... tough question
i've been doing computer support for about the last 25 yrs - but i
rely on pblm solving abilities more than nerd abilities - i see
technology in the hands of most of society as a form of onanism but
not yet a danger - soon probably
i read a lot, over a wide range of genres but i only read headlines &
the onion when it comes to news
i have a ba in math & a teaching credential & i like to play sports -
squash, racquetball, basketball, baseball, touch football ...
i taught maths in london for 2 yrs in the early '70's & then hitched
to israel & lived in a kibbutz for 2 yrs
in the late '70's i joined the peace corps & taught maths in botswana
for 3 yrs - i went back to botswana in the early '80's & stayed until
the mid '90's
i like living away from the states more than living in the states
i'm more of a follower than a leader
i wonder if you can distill any skills from that skeleton?

hi Barrett -
sorry i didn't let Mr Robinson know i rec'd his em - should've done
i'd like to help if i can - just not sure what to do
i admit that the bush nightmare put a damper on my ability to have
passions - like being a pow in your own country
so, anyway, count me in, mon general
cheers,

Steven-
Thanks for your vote. My colleague Clark Robinson sent you an e-mail the
other day but wasn't sure if you received it. At any rate, we would be
happy
to have you as a participant in Project PM's governing network, which
will
be charged with further advancing our agenda of media reform. Get back
to me
if you would like to proceed.

i gave up on reading most of the social & political crappy reporting a
couple of years ago - mostly read the onion now
however, i've just read your short on michael hastings & why the hacks
hate him & i feel a spark of .. hmm .. optimism?
