All,

The Write-a-Thon has started in most of the world, and the topic this month
is fascinating: Thoughts and Books.

http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Monthly_Write-a-Thon

With that topic, I'll be on hand in the morning...  In fact, there are
already five people who have shown up, including three who are
"keen-as-mustard and jumped the gun" and of course Aussie Aleta.

Believe it or not, this very Write-a-Thon received a press mention in the
U.K. Independent: http://bit.ly/CEzs  OK, so it's not the most positive
press coverage we've received.  But at this point, some mainstream press
attention is better than the very little that we've received in the last
year or so.  I gotta say...contrary to this journalist, we didn't *expect*
to eclipse Wikipedia before the two year mark, and we are not "a Nupedia"
(for cryin' out loud, when is that canard going to die?)--we're a robust and
growing community.  I'm personally very proud of the work we've done, and I
am happy and grateful to be able to work daily with such a wonderfully
bright and involved group of people.

--Larry
