All I was saying VG is that simply because one is able to edit the current issue, it does not necessarly follow that they have access to all of the back issues. It may be a formalism, but a free subscription would be the carrot I was talking about.
Having people pledge to help out barely works with public radio and television. To get someone with editorial ability for free or on the cheap, the only way to really make them more than casual is to have them be a stakeholder. It seems to me that as soon as things get complicated or the work turns out to be of a serious volume, volunteers are the first to turn tail and say they have better ways to spend their time.
That's all I am saying. I am not trying to be redundant. Somehow, I never connected working on the current issue as being equivalent to having full access to back issues one has already worked on. Silly me.

Okie Dokie, OD
Guess I assumed (i know, i know) that if a person edits one issue, then they'd edit all of 'em.
Glad we got that straightened out!

I think we can muddle trough it.
What we really need is writers. Dex and I will do some but we can always use more.

Basically anything with knives. I want a different perspective then those in "the know".
Like a review of a knife you have had for years. Maybe that Buck 110 you keep finding yourself using even though you have some new high tech stuff.
Anything that you can write a good story about.
