Q:Why is it that you senior editor does not seem to have anything authentically substantial to contribute?

Anonymous

Dear Anonymous:

Unfortunately he’s a simple man who is trying his best but doesn’t quite meet the standards of all. Believe me, I know he aspires to contribute something substantial before he retires from public radio. In the meantime, he’ll keep on striving to clear that bar.

Please be patient with him,
Trent Gilliss, senior editor
