"Jim Prendergast is executive director of Americans for Technology
Leadership, a coalition of technology professionals, companies and
organizations that supports limited government regulation of technology.
An earlier version of this column failed to disclose that Microsoft
Corporation is a founding member of ATL."

 From the column at http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,170724,00.html

Convenient that.

Is this James Prendergast the same E. James Prendergast that was a high 
up at DuPont and longtime employee of Motorola and AT&T?
