More stories and more maudlin commentary. If we keep this up we could go for the Guinness Book of World Records. I had really been hoping to report here that we had a firm offer for the e-zine, but no such luck, although we're still hopeful. Luckily, there's only one more issue to be maudlin in so I hope those of you who appreciated what we've been doing will submit the best stories ever.

We also have a personal challenge. We'd like to break 50,000 hits before the last issue either closes or is replaced by the work of a new set of editors and to do that we need your help. Keep clicking on the site. Let us know you've really enjoyed it. It's anonymous. You don't have to write anything. The sum total of your effort is a few clicks of a mouse. You can do it. Show us you've enjoyed. Show us, you care about what we've been doing. Show us that it's all been worthwhile.

As for the new stuff. More great stories, more excellent articles and yet another contest -- yes, we are gluttons for punishment.
