Wired News launched on Nov 18 96 with a piece on contract workers at Microsoft and something on the Drudge Report (which has been in the news a tad lately). rusirius@well.com is a Wired News reporter, I believe. At least I was recently asked by her siriusness to get in touch with Drudge via my contact Judith Lewis of La Weekly techno fame. It's http://www.hotwired.com in case you want to check it out, but don't fergit to come back here and comment. 4 new of

"her" siriusness is R.U. Sirius, a person of the male persuasion (unless he's a she very effectively pretending to be a male). R.U. is more well known as the individual behind Mondo 2000 and various amusing and/or interesting works, not the least of which is _How To Mutate & Take Over The World_ (coauthored with St. Jude and the [in?]famous Internet 21). He is also (ir)responsible for Revolting! (http://www.revolting.com/). http://www.scrappi.com/

This is an incredible site http://www.wired.com/news/ John Burnett in Hilo has a 6 hour morning show to do and I scour the internet for the weird and offbeat news for him to tailor to his needs. I just found this topic and investigated it...Holy Bonanza! What stuff of dreams this is. I just might have put myself out of business when I emailed him the URL.

Btw, the url in my last post is where I finally landed when I accessed the url listed in the intro. They must have dropped the "hot" from their website name.

A local guy, Will Kreth, was one of the founders of leading forces of hotwire. I just missed a hotwired party in SF.
