<p>My philosophy about the pickup reviews...</p>

<ul>
	<li>These reviews are voluntarily provided by net users and as such
	represent their opinion alone.  On behalf of the
	net guitar community, we thank you for your contribution.
	You have helped answer one of the most common FAQs!</li>

	<li>If you find that the pickup review form is missing categories
	that you think are important - let me know, and just add them
	to your review.  The form is to make pickups easy to compare,
	and to make the reviews concise and easy to read.
	Add anything and everything you feel is relevant.</li>

	<li>I ___never___ edit the reviews for <em>content</em>.  That's just not right...</li>

	<li>Sometimes, I am compelled to minimally edit the reviews for <em>format</em>,
	i.e., I make them readable, fitting an 80 column format, etc.
	I do the absolute minimum.  The readability as well as content
	of a review, in this sense, reflects the reviewer.  It is the reviewer's
	contribution to the net community, not my contribution.  It would also not
	be right to unduly alter that contribution ;-)</li>

	<li>Sometimes, I am too busy to re-edit reviews that are mailed to me.
	In that case, I include them here as is, until I get a chance to reformat.
	I optimize for information transfer over prettyprinting.  I think this is the
	most beneficial approach.</li>

</ul>
