[Alan Michel]

Hi Don,

Thanks for the note. I love the the Journalism 2.0 PDF. Thanks for sharing
it with me. Good luck on the launch of the new school. I hope you can join
us in Boston for the conference. It should be a great opportunity for like
minds to meet and share ideas and network.

I look forward to meeting you and thanks again from sending the info and
link along.

Regards,

Alan
