Subject: Chat with Clark Robinson
From: Clark Robinson <robinsonchicago@gmail.com>
To: barriticus@gmail.com

me: thanks clark, just sent out invite to meeting and commons link to that message list
Clark: ok
me: god, that's sad, got a bounceback from Carasov's e-mail
Clark: sorry, it did not occur to me to delete him
Clark: there are probably some other errors in the list
me: don't worry about it, I still have his number on my phone
Clark: for a group of internet advocates, we are embarrassingly primitive in our record keeping
me: yeah
me: mostly because organization is one of my weaknesses
me: if you would
me: send me transcript after meeting
me: starting from 7:00 EST
me: this may go on for quite a while
Clark: my chat program, pidgin, automatically saves a transcript
Clark: so I will send you one
me: maybe I should start using that
me: will download later
Clark: it only saves the period of chat you are signed in for -- so leave yourself signed in
Clark: not sure what the limit on that is, must be one
me: tzimportant
me: @yahoo.com
me: should be "itzimportant"
Clark: ok, i will fix it on the mailing list and check the participant spreadhsheet too
me: actually, just delete her
me: she wasn't helpful anyway
Clark: ok
Clark: she's erased
me: you am become Shiva, destroyer of contact info
Clark: credit goes to Igor, my society optometrist in Chicago, who enables me to read small (though not tiny) print, these glasses only cost $1,300.00
me: add this fellow, he's a playwright, friend of Kundra, and my spy at LGF
me: "Walter L. Newton" <newton@acrossthebow.com>
Clark: i already have him
me: okay
me: thanks
Clark: you forwarded something form him previously
me: oh, okay
me: been a crazy week
Clark: i know, it is fascinating to follow this stuff, quantico, tunis, egypt, violence going on now in Suez
me: yeah, we get realtime updates in anonops
me: irc.anonops.ru #optunisia
me: and #opEgypt
me: check it out
Clark: hope you can write some articles on this stuff, you have a front row seat, moreso than most others who are capable of writing about it artfully
me: working on it
me: I may just distribute the op-ed
me: that al-Jazeera asked for
me: and then asked for revisions to
me: and then ignored
me: possibly a problem with Qatar royal family
me: I've asked Green, others to find a place for it
me: Otherwise I'll distribute through usual methods
me: and through Anon
Clark: NPR is attempting to cover the social media aspects of the events in Tunisia and Egypt, but they don't have a fraction of the insight that you do
me: well, I'm in communication with that Newsweek fellow
me: plus vicarious in #projectpm is a reporter of some sort
Clark: just to get your foot in the door , maybe you could co-author something with hastings to get placement in rolling stone, GQ or one of those
me: Hastings is covering rally and meetings in April for Rolling Stone
me: might be best for me not to co-author with him so that he can continue to cover me
Clark: yeah, that makes sense
