Editor's Corner

Editor is AWL

No, that doesn't mean I'm a sharp pointed tool for punching holes in stuff. AWL = Absent With Leave :)

The wife and I had some vacation time and we've spent the last week playing in genealogy. We took a couple of day trips to places of genealogical interest to us, did some research and took some pictures. I've spent the rest of the week trying to figure out how it all fits into the genealogy of the family.

Since I've been sort of on vacation, I haven't done much with the Fidonews. I've read my mail when I could and answered some mail, but that's about it.

I do have one little thing that keeps coming back to bite me:

It seems that there are some that think I'm real hard on the rules for submissions. True, I would like to have the format followed to the letter and everything be perfect, but really.... I'm not that bad. I'll fix, or try to fix, problems with submissions in regards to format. Most of the stuff that comes in will have problems. It's really hard to write a perfectly formatted article and I realize this.

I know that I sound real "hard nosed" about submissions and stuff and I figured out that I'm not the Moderator type and turned that over to someone else, but gee, I'm not really that bad.

Please, don't judge me by my bark. :-)

Regards,

Frank
