While chatting, Sooz told me about Denise’s posting in response to Zeldman’s PDN article, now I wonder if I misinterpreted the article.

A quick note to say kudos on bringing Meryl back into the writing stable! I have really missed her down home way she writes. Her writing style makes me feel like she’s an old family friend writing me along with others in my family. I hope she is back as a regular! — Bullitt Darlington
