Heads up...
Monday, July 10, 2006 at 8:34AM Going back and forth by email with NPR's "On Point" about Long War story they plan for tomorrow. Since I am flying into JFK and have a layover in the right time frame, I may get on the show live, which is required.
NPR might find that scenario too iffy, so I suggested they might want to try John Robb. Why leak that in the blog?
One, to give Robb a head's up in case they call.
Two, to get credit for it if it happens.
Three, to emphasize my respect (even as I often disagree with his extrapolations) for Robb's efforts to think systematically on his global guerrillas' concept.
Four, I don't see any harm in it. Most producers I know run around with their hair on fire all day long, so I doubt anyone would read my blog, go "How dare he?!?!" and not call Robb (or worse, me in the future!) on that basis.

I hope they go for your suggestion; I'd actually tune in to NPR for that discussion. :o)
As would I! Anxiously awaiting Robb's upcoming book as you gentlemen!
