At the risk of contributing to a waste of space (but perhaps no worse
than my usual missives!), I tend to agree with Larry Lobel that little
would have been lost had the "irregardless" debate been squelched in
its early phases.

On the other hand, so long as Robbie and Jody have plenty of space, and
there aren't more "pressing" matters, then most everything subscribers
send in should be included.  More editorial work re: content will be
appropriate when there are more tight space issues (as the Digest and
its subscribers grow).

Merry (fill in your preference for a December Holiday here) Everybody!
