at the non profit i run we take volunteer hours and value each at 2o dollars/hour and report that on our irs 990. vols of course receive no greenbacks.
i see no real dollar payoff for the DCP - now there may be a dollar cost for the actual number of krespy kremes he devours in an hour of mopologetic .

If you remember DCP's email to Dr. Bradford on the occasion of his dismissal, you will recall that DCP demanded that he be paid $5,000 (IIR)* for his work on the latest edition of the Review. Five thousand greenback dollars was the only "in kind" of payment involved. ___________________

No, that's not correct. He demanded "his usual fee," along with whatever it is/was they were paying him to oversee METI.
That's why I found these new documents intriguing: it seems like they shed some light on what he was likely paid as Editor of the Review.

I was intrigued by that, too, Bond. I wonder if DCP decided to give them a discount due to the fact that Issue 1 was so riddled with sloppiness and errors.
It goes without saying that I am knuckle-bitingly excited for the October Statement.

By "typesetting / editing", I assume you are referring to "copy editing" and otherwise preparing submitted text for printing using a computer. Does this really describe what DCP, as the "Editor of the Review", was actually doing at the Review.
As a real editor, DCP should have been working with the potential qualified authors on content for submission, meeting with potential donors, writing opinion pieces, etc. As the good Dr. Scratch mentioned, if his job is (was) really just copy editing, then he is (was) not doing it very well.

As you were on the $5,000.
Dr. Scratch says that the sum of $5,000 was not mentioned in DCP's letter to Bradford. I didn't check again before I wrote the post. I should have. Sorry.

Scratch, you must be mistaken. Daniel Peterson told us himself that he received no remuneration for his apologetic endeavours. As a Mormon he would not be deceitful with us as that would cost him his temple recommend.
I think a more likely scenario is that the review is not classed as apologetics!

An old joke (no, it is a fairy tale).

The prince do it four times (he want to hedge himself). Then nothing happens. - How old are you, my fourfold sweet prince? Do you believe in tales?

ludwigm,
Anyone who ever harbored doubts that you spent 39 years in a military organization should have all such doubts removed by now.
