We'd like you to know that we also welcome letter of comment on any story (or anything else about any published issue) that could be used in our letters column in Aeon.

"But," I hear you say, "there IS no letters column. I looked. It's not there."

No, but we'd like it to be. Fact is most people read an issue, like or don't like whatever they please about it, but unless they're a reviewer they just about never sit down to the keyboard and let the editors know what they think. So we're not too sure what people other than reviewers think, and we'd like to; we're feeling a bit like the Maytag Man here.

We're hoping this tribe might be a somewhat vocal and -- dare I say it -- opinionated bunch, and say hi, post a story comment or a comment on an issue or issues, give us some 100% soy protein meat and potatoes to get our letter column going.

If you post in this thread with a letter we'll add it to the stack; likewise if you write us at waves@aeonmagazine.com. We'd really appreciate some readers' input.

Thanks,
The Lonely Aeon Editors
