I agree.  I, too, hope that the BB gets back to the Randy Crout & Wayne Leibel
days.  This depends not just on improving the proof reading, but on the ACA
members supplying quality articles for the journal. Sadly, materialism has set in
to the extent that publications like the BB are losing quality authors the
"slicks" that pay for articles. I'm not totally against this, but feel we lose a
lot of diversity in articles when an editor decides which articles are published
based solely on what will attract the most readers (and advertisers).

Here! Here! No one else is scientifically describing apistos. Past authors have
moved on the grander enterprises.

p.s. Expect to see an Apisto article in the BB by Marco Lacerda & myself soon.
