Your Letters to MMD
By Robbie Rhodes

Authors, please try to make your letters to MMD resemble the style
of the Digest articles which you read each day.  In particular:

1.  Sign the letter with your first and last names.  Limit your
    signature block to four lines.

2.  Begin the sentence with a capital letter, and use commas
    instead of ellipses (...).  Use 'and', not '&'.  Put 2 spaces
    between sentences; that's because we edit for best readability
    with a monospaced "typewriter" font (like 'Courier').

3.  Send a copy to yourself if you wish, so you can see
    what I receive, and then compare it with the published
    version.  Make it easier for me when I edit!  :)

Please don't be offended when I change your Subject line; this is
to ensure that the a Search Engine finds your letter on the topic.
(Thanks again to Bob Fitterman for his work on the MMD Archive.)

Thanks,

Robbie Rhodes, sleepy Relief Editor, MMD
