I'll be really interested to hear any discussion on hyperlocal news
projects. I'm working on a project for AARP Georgia to create a two-
year pilot in nearby Cobb County where we'll train senior citizens to
be citizen journalists. We're working with Kennesaw State University
to create a half-day training session to brief them, and we'll recruit
participants from within our membership. We also have a budget for
some freelance articles, which we'll use to augment our members'
contributions.

Ed - you aren't, by chance, working with my friend Dr. Josh Azriel at KSU?
