Light Source: What d'you know?

This isn't housing-related, but I thought you might be interested regardless. The newest questions for Light Source, the Sun's share-your-experiences opportunity, just went online today.

I told you about Light Source last month. Here's the lowdown: Economic news coverage is better for everyone when journalists hear from regular folks affected by economic issues, not just economists and policy makers. Light Source is your chance to make mass communication a two-way street.

This month's topic: health care. (Seemed timely.)

The direct link to the Light Source main page is baltimoresun.com/lightsource, if you'd like to spread the word, and I hope you will.

And now back to your regularly scheduled real estate blog.
