[Ipg-smz] [Ipg-l] Roll out the red carpet for... Mark Brownstein

[Mark Brownstein]

Hey, Stephen:

I'm still figuring out how this list works.

I HOPE that this message only gets to you.

I'm looking forward to seeing responses from other InfoWorld veterans.

I hope you're doing well -- it's great to see  your name here. (Why the 
hell didn't I join this group in 1996?)

Regards,

Mark
