[He says blushingly] Thanks for the high praise! I hope others read it and comment, to the forum or to the paper. The best way to see the articles is in print, thanks to our fine production department. However, for your convenience, the series is now online at www.skywaynews.net. The lead story has the Hot List map; it's a 6.8 Mb download - perhaps best downloaded to your desktop - let me know if it doesn't work! Reporters Sarah McKenzie and Scott Russell worked their tails off, as did photographer Rich Ryan and managing editor sue rich and production whizzes Holly Hillstrom and Bryan Nanista. I left a few brain cells on the pages as well. David Brauer Editor, Skyway News/SW Journal Kingfield REMINDERS: 1. Be civil! Please read the NEW RULES at http://www.e-democracy.org/rules.
