Subject: Request for permission to post to DEVMEDIA

Dear Professor Richardson,

I am writing to request your permission to post an announcement to  DEVMEDIA
about a major new

video on Marshall McLuhan that has just been released for sale this week.

The Video McLuhan is the most complete video record of communications
theorist Marshall

McLuhan.  It consists of 6 VHS videos and includes interviews with and
lectures by Marshall

McLuhan covering almost 40 years.   The video program is written and
narrated by Tom Wolfe.

The video should be considered as primary source material for McLuhan
studies.  The target

market is colleges, universities, and libraries.   The video producer has
decided to market the video

entirely over the Internet through a web site (http://www.videomcluhan.com),
and so contacts

through discussion lists like DEVMEDIA  are  important to ensure
distribution of information.

 I've included a draft of the text that would be included on your list, with
your approval.

If you are agreeable to posting this information, please go ahead -- we
would appreciate a copy of

the posting so that we can keep records for our client.  Or if you prefer,
we can post the message to

the list ourselves.  Just let us know.

Thank you very much for your attention to this matter.  Please don't
hesitate to contact us at the

address below if you have any questions or concerns.

Integrated Management Resources Inc.
