[Foundation-l] Interview transcription

[Casey Brown]

Well... it's not the fact that we know who you are.  Jimbo could do some
research but people will want it removed as OR.  It will probably get some
opposition but after reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:OR, it really
doesn't fit in the "items excluded" section.  As long as the subject of the
interview is notable, the interview should be able to get used.
