Hello! I haven’t hear this show in a while, but I literally stumbled across it today, and you’re talking about what I enjoy doing…writing letters. I figure I write about 250+ letters a year.
Thos letters are to amateur publications called fanzines. Check out my LJ above, and also check out eFanzines.com, where I get most of the fanzines I respond to. Most of those letters are e-mailed out, but they are written in the good old-fashioned letter format. Some of those are indeed printed out and mailed.
I think pete Nowak is an old friends of mine, but I’m not sure it the same Pete…

Excellent show today!
I particularly liked the Don Tapscott segment. Don brought up a number of items with regards to the “Millenial” generation. This part of the piece reminded me of the “Age of the Millenials” spot on 60 minutes back on May 26th of this year.
Thank you…
