Demon:

Great job with that article. It was very in-depth and very well thought out. Thank you for that!!

I think you covered everything to do w/ the subject. The only other way the subject could be looked at closer is by giving every instance of Parkour in the media case-by-case attention, hah!

yay the guides finally up

yeah if i had the oppurtunity to do an article or something, i would turn them down, as i was explaining to other people in the forum. I may be able to critique other peoples articles but im not quite experienced enough to make one myself. I think you did a terrific job creating the guide demon. Nice work

The article mentioned referring the interviewer to articles.  Does anyone have some to suggest?

[Zalorticus]

would this also count if you were doing a To The Editor?

SF Parkour also has some new "Media Interaction Guidelines" on the forum.  It was written as a summary level, companion piece to APK's "Dealing with the Media".  Feedback welcome!
