@timepinto I say self publish, but that's me. Your mileage may vary. Most contests are fund raisers; publishers (not all of course) are stuck in factory mode. The old paradigms are becoming obsolete.
@kozVerite Let's see. MSN, CBS, BBC, NYT, WSJ, The Guardian, AP, Fox, Rueters, USA Today, CNBC, NBC, ABC, Washington Post, Time. All have news of the quake.
@john_traphagan @geostylegeo I find them pathetic, insincere, and a ploy for attention and engagement. The return sympathy is abstract in the sense that one has sympathy for plights in general, not real, authentic, actual concern for the individual.
