IMC Radio News is for independent reporters of news to report in the
way they see fit. I doubt you will be able to find any IMC reporter
that is willing to read your interview questions verbatim or a
producer that is willing to air such a piece. You are of course always
allowed to self-produce such a piece and upload it to our website.

Due to limitted resources, we can not air every story that comes our
way. Sometimes we can not air a story because there are no IMC members
in a reporter or producer role that are interested in producing the
story, sometimes we can not air a story because it's content isn't
what the group wants to air, sometimes we can not air a story because
we aren't sure of the veracity of the claims made in the story,
sometimes we can not air a story because there are other stories to
air and we just have to make a decision.

The IMC is under no obligation to air a story just because someone
wants very badly to have it aired.

A google search for "Wayne Pickette" reveals among the top 100 or so
results a few timelines of computer history that mention that name. A
search for "Wayne D. Pickette" returns among the top 100 or so posts
no relevent websites that are still up and running. All the references
to Wayne Pickette that I can find (apart from your personal website
which doesn't come up in the first few pages of google hits) simply
mention him as one of the people who worked for Intel early on during
the development of the first microprocessor. None of them make the
claims about mistreatment that you are making. So I still stand by my
claim that if you post this story to the IMC newswire you will get
thousands of readers exposed to this story (readers who wouldn't
otherwise find your website) and your cause will be helped. 

Because this story of yours spans decades of time, I do not think
there is a huge rush to get the story on the air ASAP. I would like to
get more community feedback on this story in the form of comments to a
website article. I would like the chance to verify some of the claims
that you make. Producing this story will take a huge amount of
volunteer commitment to do the story justice and we may just not have
that level of commitment available for you. 

We will discuss this at tonights meeting but I can not tell you that
we will be scheduling a recording session at tonight's meeting.
