The question is now galvanizing the mainstream media. Numerous stories are appearing on both the reportorial pages (i.e., <http://news.yahoo.com/wef-unveils-crowdsourcing-push-run-210507320.html> WEF unveils 'crowdsourcing' push on how to run the Web), and on the opinion pages (i.e., <http://online.wsj.com/articles/l-gordon-crovitz-the-internet-power-vacuum-wo...> The Internet Power Vacuum Worsens). In that context, this seems like an appropriate time to set the record straight and to correct some inaccuracies that are being spread across the media landscape. David A. Olive Sent from my iPad
