I would think that the meaning of my statement would be clear from the
context of the conversation.  I'm trying to boost the bulletin.  Terry
Aitken has repeatedly said (and so have past editors of the bulletin) that
there are very, very few submissions of articles, and even when they
commission articles they have to hound the prospective authors to get
something from them.  I strongly doubt that any reasonable submission from
an AIS member would not be published in the bulletin.  It might require
editing, cutting, etc., but if you write it, they will print.

Holy cow, folks!
