Yeah!!!!!!!!!!
The job is easy with a little bit of the editor in you, general organization
skills, and the ability to meet deadlines.
I have had a great group of people to call upon to vet what I have done and
tell me what I missed:
Daniel de Lincoln
Magnus von Lubeck
Alden Drake
as well as the timley sending of the files I needed for the packets from
Asterisk (whomever she happened to be), as well as last minute scans or info
to finalize the LoI's
I would especially like to note the help Daniel has given in doing the stunt
verbage for some of the more obscure aspects of the submissions that I have
included in the LoIs I have produced.

I'm here to help train my successor as needed for the first couple of months
and then for questions on an as needed basis. I have held one or more
offices constantly for more than 10 years now and I need a
looooooooooooooong break from it all.

Beware the fine print ;)
