Next CLOSED LOOP

From Greg Williams (920919)

Time for me to start working on the next CLOSED LOOP, due out in mid-October.
Any suggestions for threads to be included? "Standards" is going in; what else
do YOU think should go in?

I still don't have permission to reprint edited versions in CLOSED LOOP of the
posts of some active netters (such as P. Sibun -- yes, I'm pointing at you).
You folks are missing a glorious opportunity to have your thoughts
immortalized in print! CLOSED LOOP is distributed to all members of the
Control Systems Group; back issues are available from Mary Powers. Please fill
out and SIGN a hard copy of the permission slip below and USPS it at your
earliest convenience to Greg Williams, 460 Black Lick Rd., Gravel Switch, KY
40328. I use posts in CLOSED LOOP only from netters who have explicitly given
me permission to do so. I edit the posts minimally (I hope!) for continuity
and grammatical (NOT political!) correctness. Feel free to write in additional
requirements on the permission slip if you wish. THANKS for helping to make
this experiment in publishing a success!

Greg, I vote for a thread on purposive influence, some carefully edited version
of the recent exchange between you and Bill.

humph. i bet i wasn't listening when i was told about this. my
inclination is to say no, but maybe if you told me more about it, like
who actually reads it and how much editing you do, i'd change my mind.
