As noted, the "Best of" selections were chosen by the respective editors as our personal favorites from the February - December 2008 / January 2009 pool. Those who didn't read them the first time around might want to sample a few now...

And THEN you might comment on how exceptionally good (or bad) the editors' tastes may be. Think of it -- a chance to compliment or slag an author and an editor with a single comment! How can you resist?
