[Journal] Vol 7 and 8

[Sunburned Surveyor]

Tyler,

As long as I can get help with the LaTex work, I'm willing to head up
Volume 8. Can I get the e-mail for Thierry Badard?

What will go into Volume 8 besides the academic articles? Is there
other material that needs to be collected, reviewed and edited?

Eli has done a good review job and provided some comments back to me off-list which I'll work through, unless someone else is available to do some edits.  I'm missing quite a few reports but am not going to delay any longer to publish it.  So, have a peek if you want to comment further or tweak anything.
