Hey, I love the content of the reviews on this site, but they're filled with typos and some missing words and just in general need a once-over.
Just one example:
In the Dr. Moreau review where Yeats is spelled Yates, which is how it's pronounced but not how it's spelled, like he was dictating the review to someone. |

Well you get what you pay for. :-)
The ROPe gives you three options, convert, submit, or die. There is a fourth, resist. |

Very true, and this might actually get some attention during Ken's little sabbatical.
As a matter of fact, we might even drag the design & structure of the site out of the mid 90's while we have the chance. We have a couple very generous offers of help with that part, but we'll probably still need to ask for some editing volunteers to help clean up the tpyos & such.
Watch this space for more details in the next few weeks.

Actually, we do have an editor-in-residence here at Jabootu, and I think it's time we all offered a warm thanks for the great proofreading job he's done over the years.
Here's to you, Tor Johnson!

Tor Johnson? That Ken has all the luck. My proofreader is Stevie Wonder.
