Cheers

Have you tried a good old-fashioned cyberstalk for the journo in question. For example, he may have a myspace or facebook page. Commonish name though, so narrowing it down may be tough.

Out of curiosity, why do you want to contact him? Think he knows something more than he stuck in his article?

well the "sportscar" study has not revealed itself in frankfurt as he wrote it would so it would be nice to hear why he thinks it has not.

In the 40th Rotary year, it'd have a nice ring to announce the next RX-8 at the 40th Tokyo Motor Show......

well if you ring them and get someone to answer just exactly what he was writing about - that'd still be nice to find out.
