If you hadn't read all the way until the end, he could've shared it. Way to go, everyone.

It's things like this which keep me from taking Bill's Blog seriously as a source of actual information. Either make it folksy and cute and overtly friendly, or make it useful. I don't mind fluff per se, but one shouldn't mix important and urgent things in with it.

Recently, when I sent some information to our 2 lead mentors, I was later quoted by one of them as, "Jane's rumor mill..."

That will make me hesitant to want to bring up or send anything from Bill's Blog again to the mentors.

Frustrating.

And.. I do mind fluff from FIRST HQ in the form of communicating with teams. I don't care if Dean has an announcement. We'll find out when we find out and no sooner.

Instead of that he could simply have said:

Expect to hear from Dean sometime in the near future, he's got something really cool to share with you all.
