Any thoughts on that independent bond trader, Alessio Rastani, who last year said Goldman Sachs would love a recession? The media seemed to settle on the fact that he was one of you guys (which a few minutes of research could flatly refute).

Seems interesting that they'd use you guys as a scapegoat for a uncomfortable comment by an interview subject.

P.S. Culture jamming is pretty awesome. Keep up the good work

Is NPR or ProPublica going to pursue this line of inquiry with regard to the American Red Cross' domestic operations? I would have trouble believing this is limited to just their efforts in Haiti.

Looking forward to future reporting!

Thoughts on armed security personnel in a hospital? Recently, it's been a topic of discussion in the health care field.

Hi Ms. Powers,

I generally hear that the MBTA is looking at new subway cars by 2019. Why so long? Is that pretty standard in terms of getting new equipment? As someone who knows nothing about the acquisition of rolling stock, I'm curious if that estimate could actually occur earlier (or later).

Also, what's the deal with the new commuter rail cars? Are the malfunctions as bad as they sound?
