With blood pressure soaring and temper fraying, I'm using this little forum to vent my frustrations. It's my blog and I'll whine if I want to.

People who write/edit for free are called volunteers. Following are some solicitations I came across this morning. Egad. Each of these--trust me, I didn't have to look hard to find them--expects a great deal of work and skill. But let's break 'em down.
