Re: Berube Comments

1.	The current editorial staff (and most specifically Steve Hunt) 
are the most rigorous, professional, and demanding staff the Forensic has 
had in my memory.  They have worked very hard to upgrade its quality and 
have done a superior job.

2.	It is no longer as "easy" to get things published in the 
Forensic.  The staff (and Hunt in particular) not only offer criticisms 
but offer suggestions for improvement and resources one might tap into.  
I have found them to be helpful and insightful.  Ultimately the quality 
of articles published has increased many fold under Hunt's editorship.
