Jim,

There is a bug in the system where a resubmission takes  the synopsis from
the previously submitted copy unless Gustavo is given specific information
for changing the synopsis in the comments field.  Even if someone puts in a
revised synopsis, the revision does not automatically take unless it is
pointed out in the comments field.  I  suspect that the synopsis information
from your submission was automatically used for the new submission for that
reason.

HTH.

But again, How did the short synopsis I wrote get into  the other
submission?
