Please Note: All mail, whether e- or otherwise, may be published in Helix unless there is a specific request to the contrary. Helix reserves the right to edit for length and inappropriate language.

No anonymous messages or letters will be accepted, nor will Helix honor requests for names to be withheld. Threatening or harassing emails are liable to be reported to the sender's ISP; threatening letters will be reported to the US postal authorities.

All emails accompanied by any attachment whatever will be deleted unopened unless prior arrangement has been made. All paper manuscripts will be recycled, probably unread, although the staff reserves the right to pass the really bad ones around among ourselves for mocking laughter and ridicule.

Gifts of booze, bearer bonds, real estate, dirty pictures, indecent propositions, etc. should be marked to the attention of the Senior Editor.
