That's a really great story idea, Greg.  The story just needs to have a 
business angle if it is going to be published in the business section. 
Maybe there is another reporter who would write the Rocky Mountain School 
story for another section because I know that what they are doing there is 
quite revolutionary for a school.  I worked at a chemistry teacher in 2003, 
and I know first-hand how far behind some schools are, which makes the RMS 
story even more extraordinary.

Richard also asked if the interview could be done via e-mail, and I don't 
see why not, except that I would think this would be an uncomfortable format 
for the subject.  If I was being interviewed about a pseudo-illegal or 
questionable past, I don't think I'd necessarily want to document it all in 
writing.  ;)
