Lockwood not in WSJ
-
Russ Lockwood's comments evidently ended up on the Wall Street Journal editorial floor in Christina Le B's article about entrepreneurs.

Another article, entitled "Not Coms," was about internet companies that failed...and I'm glad MagWeb.com wasn't included in that one! It's always a disappointment to spend time on something, in this case the pre-interview and interview, and not show up in the final result, but it's happened before.
