Editor Dick Amyx has assembled a great issue featuring regular contributors Paul Healy, Dale Adams, Gareth Penn, George Towner, and John (I hate serial commas) Cumming.  New humorist Elmo Bird joins Susan Packie with comic relief, Margot Treitel and Wes Hight bring some verse, and the ever-repressible Ed Rehmus continues his "Icarus" story.  Of course we have a "Letter" and the usual Editorial.

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.

Editor:	Richard Amyx
Asst Editor/ Proofreader:	Meredy Amyx
Treasurer:Â	Richard Ahrens
Assistants:	John Cumming, John David Galt, Myra Johnson, Sue O'Brien, George Towner, Laurie Yadon
Business:	Tod Wicks

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.
