Thought I'd bring this back up to the top, afterall it was on page 38 of the general forum.

If you have english writing skills you should find a subject, and submit an article. Please only submit quality info, if it is less than 'par' it will not be approved.

Or...

As my old english teacher used to put it:
"Should be like a good skirt; long enough to cover the important stuff, but short enough to keep it interesting."

Few wiser words have ever been spoken.
