  1. Guys - I listened to Mark Story’s comment, and while I have no comment on the viewpoint expressed by Robert Scoble, the treatment he (Mark) received for expressing his views sounded appalling. It made me appreciate the atmosphere of reasonable debate and the welcome you both promote for everybody’s views.
    Mark’s students were all articulate and provided interesting commentary. That bodes well for the future and reflects well on him.
    I just wanted to express support for Mark, for the work he is doing in bringing on the next generation of communications professionals - he is setting a great example - and to thank you.
