In case you thought I fell in the well this week, I was involved in The Editing Job From Hell. Which was completed an hour ago. We will return to regularly-scheduled programming tomorrow. Thank you for your patience.
It's an excellent opus, TC. I'm learning a lot of much appreciated minutiae and loving it. You must have spent many years putting all of that togeather! Do you think that knowledge transference from Korea to Nam didn't occur because the time interval was too short to get the (mis)deleuders out of the way? Maybe that's what's happening with TFG today, or is Newt, and Ruby Ridge, and Tim McV not a valid parallel?
Everything the North Koreans and Chinese learned about dealing with out bombing of North Korea during that war - how to make cheap repairs that stood up and could be repaired over and over, etc. - all hat was taught to the North Vietnamese during the war. The experts came and taught everyone what they had learned the hard way.
LOL! Welcome back. A (former) "friend" asked me to edit her attempt at a book, so I am well acquainted with that well from hell. Aside from having a vocabulary of - maybe - 100 words or so, many of which were misspelled, she taught me an important lesson: when you cannot get through a single page without a mark on every line, it's time to abort the project. I did. Best of luck to you! (And the better lesson learned was to stop being a sucker!)
BTW, she self published it on Amazon. As far as I know, no one has read it.

As Harlan Ellison once put it to a group of us, "Those who can be discouraged, should be."
LOL! This is a day of laughs, between you and Greg Olear. Thanks!
Glad you're otherwise ok, TC.
Welcome back from hell’s well‼️
Oooo. Look forward to checking in on Fine Mess this week. How are new release book sales going?
