Manners Matter


Just a few comments about common courtesy.
    This year I have shared some text and some slides for publication for
credit only. ( Swore I would never do that unless they were non-profit).
That includes fooling around to meet the editor's exact requirements,
bothering my web site manager for exact sizes, etc. Anyway, out of the
several slides used I have had one editor and writer send a copy of the
article when it was published and a thank you. *One*
    Guess what? Be a cold day in purgatory when it happens again. Send a
check or do without is now my motto. I believe I now have all the credits I
need and certainly a lack of common courtsey in the other side of the ledger
of life.
    Please remember to follow up after that article or slide.
