Stephanie Stricklen: April 2006 ArchivesWhat did we do before the internet? I mean, I know the answer to this, but it grants me instant access to documents that would have taken a week's worth of phone calls and letter writing to get. All in an instant. Here are some of the resources I looked at for my story tonite. This is the letter that went out back in January of 2005... Okay, I have to get working on my 6pm version of this story, so I must be brief. Here are some additional links regarding that Segway and mobility story I covered tonite... First, here is the link to the Department of Transportation's Segway guidance document I mentioned at the end of the story: http://www.fta.dot.gov/14531_17515_ENG_HTML.htm Here is a link ... I'm emceeing an event for the Daily Journal of Commerce & Commerce Magazine tonite so I have to get out of here by 4:30pm.

With all the other news of the day the producer and I negotiated 1:15 for this story on benzene and soft drinks. It's tough to set up the issue and present all the sides in 75 seconds or less, but I understand we have some really big news and there was no way around the time crunch. But the blog allows me to share with you some of the information I couldn't include in tonite's story.... Who would have thought a story about car seats could be so interesting??
