Morning Andrew and readers! Two thoughts:

- Lies of a monarch's kickstarter was cancelled for various reasons :( info here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/georgiatouchette/lies-of-a-monarch/posts/4346023

- Would it be helpful to identify Paul Sanborn as a prof at UNBC in your election ridings article? If I didn't know of him, he'd be just Some Guy With Thoughts - but I can also see the benefits of not identifying him (would avoid anti-education folks just dismissing him)

That's it for my Some Person With Thoughts lol, thanks as always!

Tbh in the context of the piece he's a voter and resident of the riding. We did talk some about forestry and I will again, I hope, in which case that area of his expertise would certainly be highlighted. But in general we identify in a way that is contextual to the topic on which they are speaking, if that makes sense (hence why Calogheros is a past Liberal candidate in the story, as opposed to former director of the Exploration Place, and Bolin is a Conservative Party member rather than city councillor and business owner).

But I've been retired for ~ 20 months! Very happy to be in civilian life and just Some Guy With Thoughts. :)
