Okay I asked a moderator, but not the magazine editor type mods. hopefull I'll get a response, or they will tell me who to ask.

Thank you. I'm very grateful. One thing I forgot to mention was that I used several different usernames. The first was espy, my initials spelled out; the second was sfear; and the last two attempts were made as bledec, a compression of bleak december, one of my favorite Poe expressions. It didn't seem to make any difference.
