Noon: Chat with technology futurist Thorton May
and Segway chief engineer Doug Field about this
month's Future Forward conference in Lenox.
This was from 9/6/2002. Apparently an online chat on Boston.com. Just wondering if anyone participated or had more info.

No - but that reminds me... When these things are coming up, especially the online chats, someone should try to get a transcript and post it here.. Also, find all the chats we've missed. Perhaps transcripts can be ordered for a small fee.
