I certainly hope it was not beacuse of what I said that you made that decision. You have been saying for some time that you were tired out. I also hope it is no surprise that I have wanted to be replaced. I've said it often enough... including at the original meeting where I was tagged "it". >I announced this in the editor's page. I hope it is now in the mail (Karen: >did you get a copy of the magazine last week from the printer so that you >could proof it before it was printed and mailed?). No, it never arrived here. I spoke to Bob Day about it, and asked if he could check with the printer. (since I have no way of contacting them) I have not heard back from him. Karen
