Hah! That other editorial organization was the American Society of Newspaper Editors. In those days, there were 80,000 newspaper reporters, editors, graphics folks and librarians. Today there are about 30,000. Sigh. Newspapers were earning record profits and spending (literally) zero on R&D, despite your best efforts. The API building was in place long before you got there, but yeah, any industry whose leaders commissioned and approved it was probably doomed to failure.
I do note that your son and daughters are all terrific, though. Your batting average is solid, and worth a beer. Or two. Or three. Regards to them all.
