I will be leaving Reuters at the end of the year. I have a book to finish, there are interesting jobs in the offing, and, though I take no great pleasure in leaving, the time is right.I haven’t been here long enough for a big goodbye note, but I have been here long enough to be sorry I won’t be working with many of you again. I’ve enjoyed my time here a great deal, I’ve learned a lot, and I leave you with my very best wishes as you keep on keeping the world informed.
