[TheForge] new anvils ring

[Fiorini & Skiles]

 I never read the Gerikaris issues but I agree with you on Robert Owings
being one of the best editors.

I don't like to read the artspeak that goes along with a lot of work either.
I think Obermeier's work is good, but I chose to skim over his reasoning.
It reminds me of my years in grad school.

for a very poor cover. not the work itself but the way it fit the page left
an awful lot of space. it seems like there is a lot of unused space in this
issue. a lot of it is filled with color for no apparent reason.
