[Journal] Volume 6: Coming out of Hibernation

[Sunburned Surveyor]

Zachary,

Thanks for your peer reivew. I submitted the other article last week,
and I should have sent you an e-mail. So its my fault you didn't know
it was in the hopper. The article is short, so it shouldn't take long
to review.
