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.
