RTFRI (RI = review info)

Dear authors I work with,

When you haven't read that introductory message I send about how to get files and what to do with 'em, I can tell.[1]

Actually, I had just started to type this when I got a reply from the author who prompted it, and he gets points for two things: 1. He realized he should've read the instructions, and has now done so, and 2. He used the term "the Internets."




1. Usually I can tell because they have used Acrobat's cross-out or replace text tools, which are explicitly forbidden in said message because they are represented onscreen as teeny, weeny, eeny lines and carats easily missed by the layout person. Guess who gets to delete all the teeny weeny eeny marks and transfer the comments to nice, friendly, easily-noticed highlighting? That'd be me.

Recipe

I made a quick, easy, and yummy dinner this evening:

Mexican-Style Salad

Chop up a head of red leaf lettuce or whatever kind you like best & stick it in a big bowl.
Chop two or three plum tomatoes and toss them in.
Slice an avocado and add it.
Squeeze out the juice of one lime over that (helps the avocado keep its color).
Add two cloves' worth of minced garlic.
Then add about 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and 1/3 cup grated pepper Jack cheese.
Sprinkle with salt and cumin to taste.

Give it a toss, and serve over tortilla strips or chips.
