[Vanhackspace] CBC - The Current - hackers at work

(votes for media package)++. It'd make the media's life easier - they
get info they can preprocess before they ready their questions - and
VHS members won't have to answer the same ten questions to start with
each time. Besides, reporters prefer to have their questions all ready
ahead of time, and they prefer to know the answers ahead of time too;
interviews are to get on-record quotes, not to get new information.

Also, if there's a lobster hypnotizing session, I'm in.
