"What a great bunch of people to work with. My boss there was Michael Brown, a great human being and a great sense of business. It was extremely interesting working for a major newspaper and I'd work there again in a heartbeat. Unfortunately they've been forced to cut back just about every year since I started. I hope they can make it through uncertain times."
