SK-bashing could take up a lot of bandwidth if we got started on it.  I long for
the John Dowd days when it was pithy and chock full of technical info.  Gotta
admit Cunningham and crew have a lot of flashy articles, and that that's
probably a necessity.  Somebody (some advertiser) gotta pay those bills!

This list is the best resource I have for good info.  Think about the great
stuff Doug Lloyd puts up here -- sorta beta testing before publication?

There oughta be a message in that for regular 'zines.  When is Jackie going to
put up a Web 'zine and exchange feeding those Westies the dry kibbles for the
high-priced stuff?

Bet those little dogs would love to be the precious pets of a Web czarina!
