Hi Charles,
First off, I am glad that Ron was not dead or injured, and it is a relief to
me that all he had was some tech issues.
Second off, It was not intended to be harsh, nor a punishment. It was
intended to recognize the facts of the situation. Ron was gone, none of us
had a single word of whether he was alive or dead, and the magazine was in a
state of limbo.
If the editor in chief of The Wall Street Journal cannot perform his duties,
thru his own fault or not, does the newspaper suddenly stop running? Of
course not. So why would it be so difficult to temporarily keep making
issues under the event of the editor suddenly missing without a trace? Even
if we had been told that he was not going to be able to make an edition for
a few months I wouldn't have a problem, because we would know that the
magazine was still being made. In fact, I would like Ron to create a simple
back up plan for these kind of situations, nothing fancy, just a failsafe
plan for a temp editor, or just a person he could relate information thru
for the sake of those of us who see the magazine as more then just some
large post, but a foundational leg of audio computer gaming that I don't
want to see extinguished. In fact, I would like it to last for generations
after all of us are long gone because I believe it is important and
necessary. Maybe others don't feel that way, but that is how I am.

Even if it were through no fault of his? Unless you're kidding, that
seems
extremely harsh.

This is kind of tough. You hope nothing has happened to Ron, yet at the
same
time, there is this magazine that is a foundation of the blind gaming
community that he did a great job with and also should not be allowed to
disappear...

Hi Charles,
Unfortunately, no. Ron unsubscribed from the Audyssey list quite some
time
back and he never resubscribed. I've tried e-mailing him as part of the
list moderators to inquire about the magazine, and I get a message back
that his e-mail account is no longer in service. I'm very concerned, and
I
do worry that the Audyssey Magazine is no longer being produced. At least
until someone can contact Ron and get the scoop. I'd offer to take over
the job as editor, but without knowing Ron's intentions neither I or
anyone else is in a position to take over the magazine without asking Ron
first.
