My actual coverage of the story, though, hasn't focused solely on ER, and the most recent article didn't mention it beyond a reference to Fialkov's blog, where I first saw the announcement. Unlike Butcher, I have no business partnership with Fialkov and Guy LeCharles Gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113334407249093149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238015.post-1141525702220989742006-03-04T21:28:00.000-05:002006-03-04T21:28:00.000-05:00Of course, Guy, you're also friends and coworkers ...Of course, Guy, you're also friends and coworkers at Pop Culture Shock with some creators that got screwed by Speakeasy. <BR/><BR/>Just saying--it seems like everyone talking about this story has some horse in the race, or at least a pony or something else small and horse-like that runs.<BR/><BR/>The whole thing that makes me laugh about the situation is seeing Mike S.
