A long time ago in a land far far away was a production editor called Wiggles. Wiggles liked going home on time so he took advice on matters such as using whiteboards, clear desks and colour coding so everything could be done in his absence. Delegate, designate and disappear was the reasonable mantra. After an unfortunate incident involving a Kombi van and the destruction of a set of overhead traffic lights at a service station somehere in the North Island of New Zealand, Wiggles migrated to Australia. He adeptly had four trays. Grey for in, amber for ready to go but let's check for the hell of it, green for go baby and red for this page has a problem on it so big you could put it on a signpost next to it and call it the Grand Canyon. Then management decreed that all trays must be black. Wiggles is a good elf. Wiggles is sure they know best.<p>[ July 14, 2004: Message edited by: Paul Wiggins ]</p>
