- There's a reporter for a major community paper here (Middlesex News - Adam
- Gaffin) who has been hanging out on the net for quite some time. I've
- seen him asking about areas from hacker trials to Rte 128 layoff
- rumors to Soviet-Nasa internet contacts.

- It is really nice to have someone come into our community to talk
- about news which affects us. Or, more accurately, to be interviewed by
- one of our own :-) I wonder why the Boston Globe never talks to us?

- PS Disclaimer: Adam quoted me as an expert in an article once :-) I
- wish we got his paper here in Cambridge.
