I talked to Dan Corbin and Jonathan Okray today. Tomorrow I have an appointment with Elizabeth Blackstone, and Wednesday with Ralph Cossey.
When I decided to interview my short-list candidates, I thought it would be easy. I had a list of questions that I don't think have been answered in sufficient depth. I'd limit the interview to six questions, get to the bottom of them, and write up the result.
The first part of the plan has gone well. Mr Corbin and Mr Okray were both willing to sit still for the questions and answer them in some detail. What I overlooked is that I'm probably not a good enough writer to convey the experience to you; I worry it will come out as mere sound-bites, which is not at all what I'm after. I'll stick with the plan for now, but in two years I may have to go with a 60 Minutes-style video format.
Tonight I'll write up the interviews from this afternoon and ask the subjects to review them. If I'm OK with their emendations, I'll publish early next week.
