GREAT interview. I very much enjoyed listening to Ms. Brashears talk about her ground-breaking advance into the male-dominated computer technology field, but where is the end? It cut off in the middle of a very interesting discussion! Thanks for what was presented, though; it was fascinating! Ms. Brashears is the kind of person you dream of having for a professor--interesting, bright, approachable, deeply ethical, and knowledgeable. Plus, she can tell a good story! Brava!!
