h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

this will not change anything in your article but I have always found it curious that different disciplines will have different meanings for the same Acronym.
In the Defense Industry AIWS is Advanced Interdiction Weapons System
sounds like something from Lewis Carroll eh,

Have we Scouts simply overlooked this one, or does it need more work?

I thought I made all the changes asked for. Someone wasn't sure about the ending because I made a personal plea for people to go to their GP if they think they have AIWS so that more research can be done, but I thought someone else was going to tidy that up.

As far as I know, it was even recommended once, but wasn't accepted. I think I saw it in the list, anyway.

Agreeing with Mala, "Currently" and "has been" seem to contradict each other.

This entry has no typos and, apart from the last two paragraphs which a subed will tweak, can surely be recommended now.

I've never experienced any of these symptons, at least not while awake, but it is nonetheless fascinating. I find especially interesting the fact that Lewis Carroll may have suffered from it which is why it's in the book.

Your Guide Entry has just been picked from Peer Review by one of our Scouts, and is now heading off into the Editorial Process, which ends with publication in the Edited Guide. We've therefore moved this Review Conversation out of Peer Review and to the entry itself.

If you'd like to know what happens now, check out the page on 'What Happens after your Entry has been Recommended?' at EditedGuide-Process. We hope this explains everything.

Thanks for contributing to the Edited Guide!

Well done!

Well done

Whhoooo! How exciting! I'd almost given up hope!

Thanks for all your help and advice, everyone.

Love

Betty

We're looking forward to your next one

Well done!!

I'm the sub-editor of this fine piece. There were very few changes to be done to it, mainly in the bibliography/reference sections at the end. I'm going to send it back to the Eds now and it should appear on the Front Page soon.

I'm intrigued by it, as I see that I used to experience some of the symptoms of it as a child, but only when I was lying in bed waiting to go to sleep. I would feel as if I was crushed flat. All my limbs would feel extremely heavy and I'd feel as if I was only a few centimetres thick. I used to think of myself looking like a slice of cooked chicken, with a flat top and bottom but sloping sides. After the first few times, I found I could bring on this feeling by concentrating on it. I probably was only 10 when this feeling stopped happening naturally, although I could still bring it on voluntarily.

Whether it's related or not, I started suffering from migraine headaches a few years after that, although never particularly seriously.

I can well imagine that it's because of these tenuous links that the condition hasn't been documented much before, as is pointed out in the article.

Those of us who've never had it are beginning to feel left out!
