Editors are necessary for all of us who haven't written a term paper or job report in some years. You guys spread the communications properly and with a minimum of snark to us lazy writers. I know practice makes perfect, but I fear my grey cells are atrophied.You guys keep us honest, so smiley - ta

Thank you smiley - biggrin

There's definitely an art to (sub)editing, but I enjoy it smiley - ok I like the Peer Review process in h2g2, too, that someone has an idea and writes about it, then other people read it and have questions that help to improve the piece, so that the final product is clear and informative smiley - biggrin

And thank you for all you write in h2g2 smiley - ta - it may be a while since you've written a full Entry, but your comments about what you read each week are always appreciated smiley - ok
