|
|
What a week. I looked high and low and all over the offices. Those
|
|
editors have gone and left me here to deal with everything on my own.
|
|
Luckily I have quite a bit of practice at the grindstone and
|
|
keeping my wits sharp.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
I thought I was being a shear genius when it occurred to me to check
|
|
the back room and see if the Answer Gang was in there. This is their
|
|
column, after all. I'm sure they'd lend me a hand. I can snip right
|
|
through this thing.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Imagine my surprise when there just aren't any <b>people</b> to be found
|
|
around here at all. They must be off at a conference or something. I
|
|
can't even find Ben's dark glasses.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Ok.
|
|
fine. I can do it. I'm the Editor's Scissors and I've seen all of the
|
|
good stuff that have ended up in /dev/cuttingroom as the great stuff makes
|
|
it to print. I raided the loose bits on the desk (I made nice use of
|
|
this old SCSI adaptor for that!) and I've rounded up a few buddies to make
|
|
up for the missing Answer Gang. I do believe you'll recognize a few of
|
|
these characters. To introduce any that you don't recognize, I've (as per
|
|
the editing guidelines) included their bios.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For extra credit, if you can solve the mystery of who all these figures
|
|
are standing in for, feel free to
|
|
<a href="mailto:linux-questions-only@ssc.com">send our staff a note</a>.
|
|
I'm sure when they've stopped fooling around they'll see I've done a
|
|
fair job.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Hoping to be back in the editor's hands next month... have a great one,
|
|
readers!
|
|
