Hi
You may not be aware - no reason why you should - but the h2g2 Community Consortium is putting together a collection of entries to promote and publicise the site. Waz suggested your split ring poem and I agree with her - so may we include it? We need permission to use it because we are not the BBC but as the author you can give us permission to use it.
Please let me know
Regards
Ben

Sorry not to have got back to you earlier - I've been in France.
I'm not sure what you mean by a 'split ring' poem, but I have a feeling that you might mean Beatrice's 'Let Me:Let You' - A 4720437, which is based on a double helix.
Not mine, I'm afraid.

Hi
It's the one about those brass paperclips that you stab through several sheets of paper and flatten out the spikey bits behind them all. If that makes sense.
I'll get the link this evening and get back to you with it.

Oh, in that case, you mean 'Anniversary Present' - A16814649.
You're welcome to use that, if you like.

I got the ok on the 42nd entry yesterday, so if I move yours in I'll have to move something else out. I can do that because I've one that I can move without upsetting anyone, but I need to think about it.
Thanks for getting back to me.
Ben
