I’d be happy to talk to Rainey; Satoshi, I assume you don’t want to deal with press/PR/interviews ?
We could decline to talk to the press— Satoshi, I know you’ve expressed concern about bitcoin growing too big too fast, and being unable to keep up with traffic/attacks/feature requests/etc. But I don’t think ignoring the press will make them go away; they’ll just talk to somebody else. I think it is better to give a realistic impression of bitcoin (it is cutting-edge, beta software that is still being developed, it is not poised to replace PayPal or the Euro anytime soon, etc) rather than let somebody over-enthusiastic become “the unofficial bitcoin spokesperson.”
