“ Get Baked ,” February
The article “ Get Baked ” in the February issue was really interesting . Since I am relatively new to Rhode Island and I have no idea where these places are , I created a custom Google Map to show the location of the bakeries . It would be really helpful if something like this could be included in your article . The map takes little time to produce and it ’ s helpful when you travel around the state .

Huge thanks to everyone who has gotten us to this point .

“ The Leading Man ,” February
I read , and thoroughly enjoyed , the article about Joe Wilson Jr . by Casey Nilsson . I do have a comment , though . At the very end , when Joe says , “ Please , Oh my God …” God should have an uppercase g and not a lowercase g . When people use that term , which is very common , it is meant to refer to God with a capital g . Sometimes it ’ s abbreviated to “ OMG .”
