Hi Scott,
The story is finished, so now I can answer your
question about who all is in it.....I hope the
following isn?t more information than you wanted!
As I mentioned to you earlier, my time for the
piece was very limited, so only a handful of
team members are actually mentioned by name --
but a bunch of others will be able to hear their
voices during solving moments. By name there?s
Dave Dickerson, Kevin/Ucaoimhu, (I think I?ve
spelled that correctly but not sure), Eric
(Berlin, though I only used first names) and
John (who I met on the night shift). There?s a
quick clip of Trip and Jeremy standing at the
board doing some solving, and they?re identified
by first name as well. At other moments you?ll
be able to hear quick, though unidentified bits
of Artistry, Matt Stone and Jenny....and I think
that covers it. But if you listen through to the
show credits, you?ll hear Ira Glass thank you
(I actually asked him to say Scott ?Fuldu?
Purdy; with luck he pronounces it correctly)
along with Eric Albert and Dan Katz in the
credits all you guys went above and beyond the
call of duty in terms of explaining things to
me, and I wanted to give a shout-out even though
none of your quotes made the story.
Thanks again for letting me invade your
headquarters while you were solving...and good
luck with next year?s hunt. I can?t wait to see what you all come up with.
