I don't know if has been mentioned prior to my actually (and finally) getting on this list... I need to have all newsletter articles in by Wed at 12 Midnight Central time (US) prior to the next issue. This is due to a couple of issues, mostly dealing with internet access availability for me, and will need to be the "standard deadline" time for at least a few weeks. So, if you have an article due for this newsletter issue, I hate to rush you... but I need to. Also, I'd like it if I could have a couple of "standby" articles sitting around, just in case. So if you'd like to write an extra article, be it shorter or less-on-topic than normal, I'd really appreciate it. Granted, these can't be timely articles, as they might not get used for months, but a couple of extras laying around, in case of serious illness/etc missed deadlines would be very beneficial. Thanks all. Deej
