Thanks for putting these together, Todd. I wish Yvette would return to blogging.

Neeru said...

And yes, thanks also for adding Murder of the Mahatama.

Thank you Neeru, and ?Patti?...a whole lot of little things have been gumming up my energies for the last little while, hence this late October(!) survey.

Todd Mason said...

I suspect Yvette feels she gets a better response for her efforts on Fb...and perhaps also finds posting there a bit easier. But I would ask her to consider some cut-and-paste exercises and tests on both...if I was one to talk!

Todd Mason said...

And this one is notably short on George Kelley's October entries alone, along with no few others. Revisions at first and subsequent opportunities.

Todd Mason said...

Yikes. This draft is missing a Lot, including all of Jerry House's.

Neeru said...

Do ask her to consider it. I miss her posts and since I am not on FB cannot access them over there. Incidentally, that Anonymous was me.

Done!
