I was heartbroken when Wolfe Publishing decided to drop Ross Seyfried. Ross could be rather aloof in person, but that's the way he is. I envied his knowledge of the odd and eccentric. His articles were interesting to me more because of the subject matter than the prose. He is writing for the DGS, but I miss his handgun articles.

I was equally distressed when Ken Waters stopped writing for Handloader. Few display the depth of knowledge and attention to detail that Ken possesses. Pet Loads still holds an honored spot on my bookshelf.

Dang, all this recollecting leaves me feeling a little depressed.
