Formatting
A standard formatting will be applied in a consistent manner
to all submissions. Plain-text submissions are preferred.
Stylistic formatting (e.g., bold, italics, capital letters,
font type and size, color, etc.) will not be preserved. Content-based
formatting (e.g., special spacing, paragraph breaks, bulleting,
outlines, etc.) will be considered as it fits into the overall
standard look of the newsletter and as space allows.
Editing
The Editor reserves the right to edit for spelling, grammar,
content, and/or length, or to return the article to the author
for further revisions.
Submission or revision of an article does not guarantee publication.
Submissions received by the deadline on which extensive revisions
have been made will be returned via email in a modified form
with changes tracked. Submitter has 48 hours, or by the 1st
of the preceding month, whichever is less, to contact the
Editor if there are objections to the editing. No contact
with the Editor implies approval of the changes. Submitters
will not have final review rights before the article is published.

articles and photos will be acknowledged with an email receipt
