M.N. Cox (mncox) | 12 comments I would like to add some quotes from this book but it's edited. It contains essays from about fifty different people.

What is the protocol for this?

No replies so I'm wondering - is it generally avoided? Does anyone know?

If your post hasn't been addressed within a couple of days, you can reply to your own post to bump it to the top.
