Email wrote:Dear Fellow Neopian,
NeoPets is looking for a special group of loyal users in the Los Angeles, California area to participate in a an interview with a reporter for the Los Angeles Times. The interview will focus on your experience on NeoPets.com.

If you are interested in participating, you have permission from your parent, and your parent can also participate in the interview, please reply to mailto:opinions@neopets.com with your name, age and phone number.

I will be calling the parents of those users that will potentially be selected in order to conduct a preliminary screener.

So, please make sure that you have your parent's permission to participate, and that you provide complete information.

Thanks!

I got it from mailto:opinions@neopets.com - did anyone else recieve it? I'm wondering how they know I live in Los Angeles...my mom works for the LA Times, so I think I'll ask her if she knows anything about it.

Wow, there might actually be an article about neopets that has some truth in it! :o

What do you mean? I thought there were a couple articles about neopets that were accurate (except saying that it was only for 8-year old girls).
