[dorkbottac-blabber] Tacoma Dorkbot article

[Laura MacCary]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for pointing out the error. I'm glad it is not too big, and that you
corrected it here. You know we want to know who made what!

But as for the press, I'm just really happy they spelled everyones' names
right, and pleased that the quotes are mostly correct. The article turns out
to be far more accurate and supportive than I dared hope. Niki Sullivan is
genuinely interested in dorkbot and it shows. Can you tell I've had a
different experience with the press in the past? It makes me curious to see
what else she has written about.

Thanks for the reminder about the web site. We're working on it, I'll send
an announcement to the list when it's up to date.

Laura
