There are no new Rock the Boat items in this issue. These are meant to be comments no longer than half a page on horological topics, including controversial ones, but not personal. This is a quick way to write a short article, convey an important idea or ask a question.

I currently have commitments for 3 articles to be published in the special issue of HSN relating to temperature compensation. These articles will appear in HSN 2000-3. Please contact me if you are interested in contributing additional material for this issue. The deadline for material to be submitted is June 1, 2000.

Request for articles: New material is always needed and appreciated. Are you or someone you know working on something that would interest our readership? Please contact me if you need help getting your ideas and work into print.
