Title: Request for Interview
Post by: sirjstan on November 27, 2014, 04:54:36 PM: Hello, I am a tenth grade student working on a research paper about the different perspectives about the Flat Earth Theory. I was hoping that I could interview a member of The Flat Earth Society via Skype.

Posting questions gets answers. Pushing agendas get debates.

Post by: sirjstan on December 01, 2014, 11:35:47 AM: The earlier the better, but the latest I can do it is the 12th of December (EST)

Post by: sirjstan on December 02, 2014, 10:27:29 PM: I can post the questions before the live interview if that is the worry. Would that be better for someone?

That would be convenient, but in my case it's really just the lack of time. I could probably do something this weekend if that works for you.

Post by: sirjstan on December 03, 2014, 01:49:23 AM: That sounds great! What is your Skype name or email address? Also do you mind if I record the conversation to look back on for reference? Thanks.
Title: Re: Request for Interview
Post by: Pete Svarrior on December 03, 2014, 02:08:55 AM: I set up a new Skype account named pizaaplanet. I'd rather not disclose an e-mail address if you don't mind - you can always send me a private message through here.

Also, I don't mind being recorded as long as you agree for me to record the conversation too.
