Tom, didn't mean to say you were involved with us in any way.
Just wondered why you guys set up the American Reporter archives on your
Presslink site? What was the idea, and what was supposed to happen? At
one point, we were told it would be used as a resource for 4,000 KR
editors around the country, who might want to pick up some of the articles
for their pages. I spent hours downloading the archives to Steve Messere
and then, after he gave me a password and I went and saw it there, I
rarely heard from him again except, at one point, he wanted to
unsubscribe. Whatever happened to the archives? Why did you take them,
and mount them, and what were you planning to do with them? It's
certainly true that you never got involved with us in any way beyond
mounting our database on your site.
Best,
Joe Shea
