On editors

[Penny Padgett Harper]

Ya Sam quotes the "complete review"'s review of _Tours of the Black Clock_:

>when have editor's [sic] ever done their jobs ?

Thanks for the laugh, Ya Sam.  The presence of the punctuation error in a hyperbolic
paragraph devoted to a trivial yet "intensely irritating" translation error was quite humorous.

The Oregonian had an interesting article about Gary Fisketjon, who has edited Richard 
Ford, Raymond Carver, and others.   Demanding, yet self-effacing:  the perfect editor.
