Problem ... ... solved. Additionally - wow! Fantastic issue, wonderfully arranged. I intend to comment more on some of these pieces, but I've only skimmed "Hapless" so far.

awwwww The picture was already super cute before (also Mister M must be standing on a chair or something), but this background makes it even cuter.

That's the most heartwarming gift I've received in years! Thanks, Sherry!
Oh, and about the Mister.M thing, he brought a folding chair and photobombed the pic without anyone realizing it.

Finished reading this now; I second the standing ovation for this incredible feat. Congratulations to MisterM for organizing and compiling this, and congratulations to the incredible writers of this issue. My favourite essays were those by Sam, Hermes, and probably most of all, Sherry Ann (very inspirational). But there were many other little moments I loved; the last paragraph of Anka's essay is heartwarming, and Lemona's 'Bonus Round' of ASoUE reminiscing was my favourite of Book Things contributors. Also I'm positively surprised that apparently the forum never really went "dead" during the so-called six year gap between ASoUE and ATWQ; I really hope 667's relentless activity will continue long after ATWQ.

Well, I still haven't managed to read all of this, but I want to second all those who have said how great it is: Sherry Ann, Sam's and Anka's contributions are especially moving, Dante's introduction to ATWQ is a great resource, Tryina's picture is beautiful, and it was really interesting to see Pandora discussing ASOUE. Great work, Mister M and all the team!

Like Terry Craig and Hermes, I admire the candor of BSam's piece, and the ATWQ Beginner's Guide is a persuasive read (even if I'm not the target audience). Dante's essay is illuminating and oddly relatable, and I'm particularly impressed by the concluding lines. As for our Hapless Commentators, they had some interesting, humorous, and wildly diverse observations to make on the series. I think Anka's essay had us all wiping a metaphorical tear from our eyes by its conclusion, and Linda's column, as usual, is thorough, well-researched, and great reading. On a similar note, I remain mystified and in awe of Hermes's specific and accurate recall of all things (indeed, this essay brought back many a memory: I remember the "What will we do now?" question with haunting clarity). As implied above, I agree that Tryina's illustration is lovely (and looks like it scanned very well, I might add). I think MisterM's essay leaves this edition ringing on the perfect note, and I am again struck by its authenticity.
Irrelevant aside: I was initially horrified to see half the names changed in my essay before I realized that that was simply the tagging function and we were midst themed screenname days.

I'm touched that, after all these years, someone still bothered to think about me. Thanks, Sam!

Hey it's PJ. Remember when we used to be e-twins? I remember. And I'm glad that Dante is still kickin' around too! Reading the 667er brings back many memories... it's incredible to see it still around.
