In case ya'll didn't hear Jeff Herne has taken the post of Associate Editor for Fine Scale Modeler Magazine. Let's all take the time to wish this most deserving fellow great success in his new endeavor. I hope Jeff will cotinue to hang with us as he has an incredible amount of reference material, and now probably access to even more.

Wow! That is so cool! I saw the ad for the job and it looked like one of those dream oppurtunities that don't come along too often. Judging from his input here, I am sure Jeff will do a wonderful job!
Congrats!!!

Ciao Jeff,
Congratulations! Wow, that is going to be sad having to work with models and modelers all the time! It' like you won the lottery.
Wait a second. We are becoming more powerful, right? All we have to do is get Jim Starkweather elected to public office somewhere AND WE COULD TAKE OVER THE WORLD!! Muhahahahaha! (That's a mad scientist laugh, by the way)
Ciao for now
Rob

Thanks guys...
All kidding aside, it really is a dream job, getting to write about modeling and edit stories about modeling.
I'm glad that Kalmbach gave me this opportunity.
I obviously won't be posting too much anywhere outside of the FSM forums on the web...but...one never knows, I'll always stop in once in awhile and say hi!
After all, I can't let Jim forget that he owes me two Big Macs and Chocolate shake!! :-) :-) :-)
Best Regards,
Jeff

Well now I know who to bug at FSM about upcoming ship releases. Maybe you can get to do the reviews of the new kits as they are released. Look forward to reading things from you. I've subscibed to that magazine for 20 years now and have always enjoyed it. It'll be a little more special to me now.
