Stan,

One of the things I learned in college journalism is not to be thin-skinned when submitting articles. In case you didn't notice, one of the articles is by a new chipper. Hardly time to enter the "Inner Circle."

Once every two years we have a plethora of political ads in one issue, then we go back to normal. That beats the way it is in the rest of our society. The political ads only take short breaks there.
