(I'm hoping to get an interview with Jon, so I can say I interviewed someone who interviewed a journalist.) Of course, in this day and age, it's the journalists and scribblers who fill the panels at conferences, and it's the journalists sought out by other journalists for comments on the Meaning of it All. One of our well-known journalists, a good one, was saying recently that he's been invited to many special conferences on cutting edge issues, libertarian technopolitics, etc. I guess I'll need to become a journalist to even be invited to my _first_ such event! Merely inventing a bunch of things and writing about them for the past 13 years on the Net doesn't hardly qualify for inclusion amongst the _journalists_! With the proliferation of "Oracle 8i World, the magazine for Oracle 8i Administrators" and "Python Times" and several hundred other niche computer magazines, maybe we'll _all_ have to become journalists just to fill the pages. (OTOH, I expect a shakeout in the b.s. magazines comparable to the bursting of the bubble for the dot gones.) --Tim May -- Timothy C.
