It was a particular pleasure to see this issue published, with its large number and wide assortment of papers and abstracts. Although I am the Editor-in-Chief, Mike Saladyga and Elizabeth Waagen do most of the work. And others at HQ contribute either directly or indirectly. The AAVSO Council and the JAAVSO Editorial Board also play a role. Thanks to all of them! And thanks to the authors for preparing and submitting the papers. Each paper represents a lot of work. As I note in my editorial, the authors come from around the world. They range from students publishing their first paper, to old-timers (like me). Thanks also to the referees, who voluntarily and anonymously help us to make the papers as good as possible. And the AAVSO members and donors who provide the financial support. I hope you all enjoy this issue!

The journal just gets better and better! As you noted, a lot of hard work by a significant number of individuals goes into each issue, and all of you deserve thanks and recognition.
