Hello,

I'm a reporter for SmartMoney, the personal finance magazine of the Wall Street Journal. I'm working on a story about new pools and some of the deals purchasers have been able to get, and I'm hoping some people on this forum might be willing to speak with me about their experiences. I read a post by Mark "swimlane" about some of the discounts he was able to get on his new pool and I'd like to respond to his post, which can be found here:

I'd like to ask Mark to please send me a message or email me at jennifer.wieczner@dowjones.com with his contact info if he might be willing to speak with me. Anyone else who is interested in speaking with me can please do the same! Can the moderator please help me to post this request? If you have any advice about reaching out to your members, I would really appreciate it!

Thanks so much,
Jen
