NOT in the cards, if for no other reason than I sorta gotta begpleadwhine
pretty much constantly in order to get enough material for a regular-sized
issue, never mind a double issue.

The timing of real-world events sorta wipes out the idea of an Editor's
Retrospective; as I'd mentioned to Timothy in an email thread, even my
normal writing has 'taken a hit'; stress from the disruption has left my
ability to focus ... somewhat impaired ... and I have several articles in
process that I just haven't been able to get my hooks back into...

I am not, however, opposed to e.g., a Theme Issue if I can get enough
material tied to the theme. I have a number of possible themes on my list
(see below); I'm willing to entertain additional ideas - but the key is
getting the relevant material!

I'm also open to other ideas (both for the Theme List below, and for what I
should do for Issue 100), so keep them coming!

On my List Of Possible Themes:

Religion in Traveller
Orbital Starports and their Startowns
The Yacht
The Free Trader (ship and/or 'career')
The Cruise (and/or the passenger liner)
A Darker Imperium (the iron fist isn't so covered by the velvet glove)

Had the potential product not (apparently) died, there would have been a
Theme Issue for the release of Traveller: Prime Directive (Star Trek
support)
