I promised on Sept 10 that I would write to explain why we stopped doing the Rebooting the News podcast. 

First, it's my fault. I take the blame. My interests shifted. I think you can hear that if you listen to the last few podcasts we did.  

I got tired of talking about rebooting the news, a process that we agree started many years ago, with the advent of the web -- and wanted to get back to actually rebooting the news. There's more to do and the talking wasn't getting it done. 

An analogy: You can talk about love, which certainly is fun, or you can make love, which also is good.  

As Pete Seeger sang: "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." 

We may swing back around, with enough new rebooting under our belts, with a need to talk about it some more. 

"A time to plant, a time to reap that which is planted."
