I didn't get as much airtime as I expected; my half hour of interview was edited down to, oh, 45 seconds? I dunno. Part of that was my fault; when they asked me for suggestions of who else they should talk to, I recommended a few other people, and they DID interview those people, and hey-presto, I was just one of several voices. And they edited out the part that actually linked my quasi-amusing anecdote to how I came to actually *apply* the term 'spam' to mass posting via discussion group and email, but hey, I doubt anyone at home really cared that much. It was fun anyway.

Last time anyone in the media paid me this much attention they were doing their best to make me look like a geek. The next time any opportunity for that sort of attention came along, I went out of my way to frustrate their attempts, & got absolutely no mention whatsoever.
So, maybe you were lucky!
Congratulations, anyway - can I saw I know you??
