I'm just happy that Mico used cryptozoology as her example. :)

Class of '07
I think I remember most of them, but since it was back in my early reader days, not particularly well.

Dear Genuine:

Thank you for writing my blurb. You are the best. I"m sorry I didn't write you back.

I know who The Meanest Flower is, and so do you.

Well, he didn't so much retire as get fired, so I'm OK if you don't feel like tracking him down. (Also, GA, I owe you something very nice for doing this. I knew it would take a while to compile, but it sounds like it was about 20 times as much work as I thought it would be. Are you allergic to wool?)

Did I not send you St. Jerome's response? Because he did respond. Oops! If I posted it as a comment, would the editors accept it?

You know that discussion Mico said she would never want to have?

Yeah, I would totally love to have that conversation (and have a little bit a few times before.) But I'm sure if I brought it up I would probably get in trouble, and upset more than one person (as is my track record.)

So I won't.

I'm offended that you're even talking about the possibility of offending people.

And I'm offended that you're bringing up a conversation that I honestly can't remember. Gees, Marduk.

I am not allergic to wool. But really, I don't think you owe me anything considering this question literally went over 1,000 hours, most of which was me dragging my feet. It has inspired me to try and create a directory of past writers so we never run into this problem again. Maybe I will email you a link to the google doc and pick your brain.

I appreciate Azriel's observation that what one person reads as showing interest may simply be the other person's base amount of niceness or friendliness.

Look I answered a question I'm famous

Also I want to clear it up that it's basement of the shed. I don't want you to be confused, DL! Our cool room's already in the basement and it is the joy of our life! We can everything and put it there, including butter and beef.
