I'm very grateful for the vivid notice. It's always interesting "to see oursels as ithers see us." I wish the Far Future could see us as a kinder species. We could make a quantum leap to committed construction from benighted destruction. It would make my transcribings of info from Y3000 a lot less embarrassing. "Yes, well, yes we did torture people. Yes, we did spend money on weapons instead of education. Yes, we didn't have health care for all our people." It's the look of faint disgust (They are very polite) and incredulity on their faces that so crawls the skin. Again, so many thanks.

I wouldn't promise unless I thought I could make good on it.

Only do that Pat, if there are enough that meet high quality from Nov 19 to the 25.

Apologies are owed to the writers who should have been selected for Editor's Picks in Books this week! I'll be making my amends with a double-dose of picks for next week. I promise.

Thank you! I'm honored. I knew my obsession with the Food Network would get me far, I just didn't know it would get me this far.

Temple--thank you for reacting to my overreacting, and for the fine-tuning.

GoHah, not worried about the cussing and I'll see what I can do to add back in the context no one else would have noticed was missing :-) Give me a few. And yeah, it was its own post :-)

For the record: I understand that my Editor's Pick Picks comments needed to be edited--I'm longwinded and cuss like longshoreman--but without the needed context, the "emotional bloodbath" makes little sense, connoting much childhood wailing and gnashing of teeth where there was none. Which would be no big deal, except that Mom just called, cussing like a longshoreman . . .

I may have missed something in transfering between many mailboxes and getting used to my new non-Bc editor's office. Let me know 'K? Thank you.
