Subject:  Cincy Update

If you didn't make it to the 2010 Cincinnati Old Time Radio Convention, you
missed a great time.  We had a new hotel this year, which was great and the
staff was really helpful.  They made everything run smoothly.

We had presentations and recreations, a busy dealer's room, and a fun trivia
session.  [removed] broadcast the event live and featured interviews
with many of the attendees.

Personally, I got to participate in the Gunsmoke recreation, picked up
Martin and Terry's Green Hornet book, stayed up late talking with friends,
and really cleaned up in the raffle (won on a full 40% of my tickets).

Congratulations to Ken Stokinger for winning the Parley Baer award and Terry
Salomonson for winning the Stone-Waterman award.

Next year's convention is already scheduled for May 20-21st.  Make a point
of attending.

Subject:  In the Biel tradition, one more standard

Prof. Biel makes some good points in his recent post regarding academia's
privilege and obligation in revealing sources of research.  I resonate with
what he writes and buy into it completely.

I like his "tests" when examining printed volumes:  acknowledgements,
footnotes, and bibliography.  They are all high standards on which any
competent writer should be able to have his work judged authoritatively.

To this I'd add a fourth qualification:  index.  If most non-fiction volumes
are missing that one, it tells me the researcher/author doesn't have a whole
lot of pride in his work.  He's skimming the surface, refusing to do the
nitty gritty exceedingly tough job of providing a handy reference guide for
present and future generations.  While this measure may not be a determinant
in the Biel style on how qualified one is to produce texts, it's a visible
testimony on just how seriously the guy named on the cover views his work as
well as how he sees the people who will use it.  Nothing disgusts me more,
save a bunch of errors, than to pick up an otherwise informative treatise
and discover the author thought so little of me as to beg off on producing a
comprehensive index.  (Some try to nod in that direction by adding a couple
of pages of scant data which doesn't qualify either.)

One of the first instructions I was given by a publisher eons ago was to
provide the biggest index you possibly can, including every proper noun such
as people, places, shows, and general subject areas in which the readers
have some genuine interest.  The idea was to help the reader in every way
possible.  I've tried to do this and so have most of my authoring
colleagues.  For me, it requires an extra couple of weeks of work to
complete it, but I believe it's absolutely imperative in finishing the job.

I think a case can be made for considering indexing's importance on a level
with bibliography and footnotes for they all say a great deal about the kind
of person a researcher really is.

Dear Folks-

Those of you who caught Jay  Stern and I on the Lincoln's Birthday webcast
of RADIO ONCE MORE (and those who  didn't, too) might enjoy tonight's show
(Welles' Birthday was just last  week.)

[removed]

Final contents hadn't been  locked at presstime, but will likely include
radio work by Orson and about Orson  - as well as the American debut of a
recent interview with one of the last  surviving members of the cast of the
historic WAR OF THE WORLDS  broadcast!

Neal Ellis and Ken Stockinger put on a good show, and I'll do  my best!

Hope to meet you there,
-Craig

Sharp-eyed Jack French pointed out that I had my winners wrong in my last
note.  Here's the correct list:

Terry Salomonson (Dave Warren Award), Ken Stockinger (Parley Baer Award),
Jack French (Dave Warren Award and Stone-Waterman Award), and Laura
Jansen (Dave Warren Award).

Bob Burchett also gave a Stone-Waterman Award to the Crowne Plaza Hotel
staff and management for the fantastic reception they gave us, and the
kindness they showed us throughout the convention.

Photos of the winners are at [removed] .  Also, the flyer is
already up for next year's convention.  Mark your calendar (does anyone
have a 2011 calendar yet?) for May 20 and 21.
