I'm with a research team at the University of Maryland studying the
dramatic rise and collapse of Webvan.  If you were an employee, customer,
competitor, supplier, or in some other way touched by Webvan, we
invite you to add your thoughts to what will soon be a complete
narrative of Webvan.  We are building and will be contributing a
narrative to the UMD National Archives.   Through the archives, we
will help establish a permanent history of the company.  Would you be
willing to add your thoughts to a permanent archive?  If so, you can
contribute your ideas by completing a short questionnaire (6
questions) hosted by George Mason University:

I greatly appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing
from you.
 
Sincerely,
Mike F.
