Population?   Fill out this form and it'll get whisked
away to a secret hiding place where our trained squirrels
will frown at it, poke at it, and hopefully post it.

<P>If you have an editorial, an idea for an editorial, a bug
with Slashdot, a question about slashdot, or anything besides a simple
story, I would prefer it if you <A href=mailto:malda@slashdot.org>mail
me</A>. The opposite is true too- please use this form if you have a
story. <B>Resist</B>
the temptation to email me directly with Slashdot Stories!  This form
organizes things intelligently and makes my life much easier, please
use it!     
<P><B>Please</B> also note that this is the wrong place to
mail bug reports, complaints, or requests for advertising
