Our very own Bingley has been invited to become a Contributing Editor and take over the Ancient Greece topic for Suite101.

Thank you. I haven't decided whether to do it yet. Depends how much time is involved.

Oh dear, oh dear! I just got a PM--thank you--noting that Bingley's course was not locatable and that the courses cost money, and therefore wasn't I advertising? I am sorry. This is exactly the kind of thing that I got marked down for all through school: rushing through and not being thorough.
As far as I know, Bingley has not accepted the offer yet, and frankly I am not even sure whether his involvement will count as a "course" or not; but I only put the link as a means of finding out what Suite 101 is, since I hadn't heard of it. Confess I didn't even read far enough to find out that they charge for their courses. I just thought it was quite an honor that they sought him out. If ANYone else sees my opening post as commercialism, let me know in public or in private, and I'll take the site right off. Again, I am sorry.

Jackie, whoever wrote you that PM didn't think the thing through. You weren't advertising anything. Let's say tomorrow I get a job teaching deconstructionist post-modern narrative at Harvard. You bet I'm gonna tell the world, even though Harvard charges tuition! [sheesh...]

Dear Jackie,

Whoever sent you that PM can take over the job of Head Nitpicker. I haven't been terribly happy with Juan's performance in the office lately.

Yours Truly,

Faldage
Nitpicker Emeritus
