From: callaghan%pseudo.DEC@decwrl.ARPA (Gaylene Callaghan DTN:523-4523) I normally keep quiet, but this one won't stay still. For those that criticize and tack on "I can do better than that" or "I can write better than that", I haven't yet seen someone with a BIG mouth actually sit down and do something with all those *wonderful* ideas they think they have. How about it? When are we going to hear something from you other than criticism? When are you going to do something? Why not change the story and let us hear *your* ideas? Gaylene

I've been trying to do better for four years steadily, and I'm no threat to Heinlein yet (or even published yet, dammitall).
