A radio station in the Seattle area is looking for Rosetta users for a radio interview. Your (and the TeAms) chance at 1.5 minutes of fame. :D

Great news Wiz, I hope you enjoy the interview!!!

Please if you can ... share megans story, I am sure its something most can relate to, as far as great reasons to crunch. You probably already were, and if thats the case, please disregard this.


Thank you
Mike

Yes, that's exactly what I did.
I also shared what a great place TA is and also of course that I crunch Rosetta as a member of Team Enterprise, a mini team of Team Anandtech.

She was interested in the competitive aspect so I filled her in a bit about the competition between mini teams on TA and of course TA with the rest of the world.

I mentioned Seti Classic and how that worked and got a lot of us into the game and how we have all split up into various projects under TA since Seti 1 ended.

Of course I talked about Maegan, and I pointed her in the direction of Grampa Smoke. ;)

Thank you Wiz!

I should have known you would cover all the bases :)

You are after all a part of 2 of the best teams on the web, and a great teammate.

I am sorry if I offended, didn't really think the wording through on that request. (as usual)

I thank you for sharing the information, it made my day :p

Mike, I didn't see anything at all offensive - & you didn't mean anything offensive, so I think we are all good here... ;)
