Re: WAS Donna SS - Now AERC



FWIW, if there's something you like or dislike about EN, you might let them
know about it.  I don't think the office staff is on RC and I *do* know for
a fact that they put an awful lot of time and effort into figuring out how
to improve it, which mostly goes by unsung (as does most efforts of
volunteers).

The editorial staff doesn't "make policy" as far as I know, but a word of
thanks and 'hey, I really liked what you did last month, here's a
suggestion' would go a long ways.  Same goes for any other volunteer for
that matter (even, heaven forbid, a BoD member).  Smiles and an attaboy do
wonders.

Just a thought.
