			Hi, Kristina.

I think you should tell them, in general, what kinds of information 
you want. Don't bother with an exchange of questions - it compromises 
you way too much as a journalist. They can tell you, in their 
response, if there are things they don't want to talk about. Just 
give them the basics - unless their publicists insist on formal 
questions. And if you do submit formal questions, be sure to let them 
know the conversation could work itself around to other questions, 
depending on how it goes. Don't be too, too easy on them; they'll set 
the pace for what they want to tell you.

Do well!
