Some people just can't leave well alone and constantly poke their fingers in other peoples pies. I understand what you are saying about the editor changing the meaning of your words and that is much, much worse that simply correcting grammatical mistakes and should not be allowed without first contacting the author of the article. The phrase "too many chiefs and not enough Indians," comes to mind. Folks in charge here continually seem to think that they can make changes all over without paying any heed to the members. So sorry this has happened to you Ornlu, but I do think you should get in touch with the editor and ask them what they thing they were doing. Catlin
