And I am an amateur investigative journalist who has recently been exposed to this world. I'm a total newbie, but I have a bunch of friends, simply by virtue of where I live, with a bunch of people who work for some pretty crazy sounding companies like SAIC and General Atomics, and they have some crazy stories, especially today, so I thought I would join the party! 
Hope my ignorance doesn't;t offend anybody!

Hello Sarah,

Welcome to deny ignorance...

Since I love the ideas of both actual investigation and actual journalists; I will offer (humbly) something that seems like 'experience' in the realm of DI.

There are absolutely no wrong questions.

Read around, find something interesting... go for it.
Ask, share, add... it's all good.

Plus there are some genuinely great members to speak with...

I can't wait to see you on the threads.

Welcome!!

I hope you enjoy every bit of it!  Jump in!

Que Le vaya bien!

A warm summer welcome to the Deny Ignorance community. Try replacing ignorance with the learning paradox. The more you find out about a chosen subject, the more it feels like you know less. Oh, and that cycle never ends. 

Welcome to the site Sarah.  hope to read some of your posts in the future.
