Kutenay and Matt--

Thanks to both of you for the kind words. I would also like to point out to anybody here who has expressed regret on Ross's departure that everybody at Wolfe regretted it as well.

But I must also point out that the powers at Wolfe thought it was the correct decision, and I believe they were right.

As noted before in this thread, I can't provide any real details of what happened, but will note that any magazine would be crazy to let one of their best writers go without good reason. You'll just have to take my word that there was good reason--and not just one.
