I'm usually a lurker but I just have a few things to say about Modern
Ferret to ferts@webtv and everyone else.  First of all, I like to see
pictures of Mary, Eric and their family because I feel like part of a
community and I feel like I know them a bit better.  Why should the
creators of such a community oriented magazine be anonymous?  What should
they be hiding?  Their hard work and love of ferrets?  I think NOT!  And
the articles are not about Mary & Eric, and I wouldn't care if they were!
I like to know about what they do so well!!  I enjoy reading articles by
Mary & Eric and I feel that I can trust them because of their openness and
I feel that I know more about who they are and what experience they have.
I don't think any Modern Ferret Subscriber/Reader is bothered by
"complaints" about their lack of sleep.  I think we all have learned and
appreciate how much hard work is put into producing M.F.  I had no idea
what all was involved in making a magazine work.  And as far as the delays
in receiving the magazine- I am happy as long as I get M.F.  I love the
magazine and I wouldn't change a single thing except maybe make it about
40 pages thicker!!!  I can't believe someone would bash what these people
have accomplished and you can't even compare the value of knowledge in M.F.
to those other so-called ferret mags.  I am a very open-minded person and
I read the other mags to give them a chance and the info was so
uninteresting, generic and repetitive that I lost interest.  It's nice that
they attempted to do something about ferrets but I think Modern Ferret is
way more involved!  I'll jump down from my soapbox now.  Thanks!
 
Love to all of you from Kimberly and her Heavenly Seven!
