Editorial Issue #43 Richard Amyx


About
This Issue

This issue sees the appearance of new author Richard Mullen with an interesting proposition about a problem that's still as current as it was 25 years ago.  Regulars George Towner, Meredy Amyx, Gareth Penn, and Paul Healy offer some interesting reading with their articles, Ed Rehmus gives us an interesting short fiction piece, and Wes Hight provides poetical relief.  Newcomer Joy Robb joins semi-regular Susan Packie in the Humor department.

Note:  The Editor at the time, against the advice of the staff at the time, decided to add an Editorial in the space where short contributors' biographies were printed.  It is for this reason that the little "About" sidebars in this online version are empty.  We hope that these bios will return in the near future.

We're still trying to recollect why The Ecphorizer needed a Treasurer back then.  There was no cooking of the books and the income from subscriptions pretty much matched the expenses of printing and mailing.
