Not to be coy or anything, but, well, I guess I'm being coy.
Supposedly there's a staff meeting at the end of today where Lawrence will officially break the news.

Take with a grain of salt the bit about Brodeur not being Lawrence's pick for editor. The handoff happened under the Metrocorp reign, sure, but I don't recall Herb Lipson holding Jeff's hand through that one.
Press Release
Lissa is right, although Herb did hold my hand once during a quiet walk. It was nice. Anyway, and just so everyone can breathe easy, I have a press release planned for tonight. Stay tuned...and in the meantime, don't be surprised if Mike's name shows up as a byline in the Dig again. It's been discussed already. He's a great writer and I'd love to have him.
Finally! We have something
Finally! We have something other than the glossy cover and questionable web site design scheme to discuss!
