For IP and those who have watched the Flash presentation:

If, as the presentation asserts, the 4th Estate crawls off the web  
and back
onto the printed page, what will power the hard news engine of  
Google? It
seems to me that a core component of the Media future the presentation
authors see will be missing, making their Epic and Newsbotster  
constructs
worthless as a source of "hard" news.

In short, I see a need for professional writers and editors far into the
foreseeable future.

Yes, as through this world I've wandered / I've seen lots of funny men;
Some will rob you with a six-gun / And some with a fountain pen.
