About LARGEREGO
LARGEREGO is an alternative cyberweekly published every Tuesday, come hell or FTP malfunction. Launched in October 2000 as a vehicle for Greg Olear's editorial columns, the ezine expanded to include features by Brady Richards, lists by Charles Sterne, Middle East dispatches from Jeremy Neuner, and more.
Plans include an independent music review section, a flashy new logo, world domination, and more work by people who did not attend Georgetown University. LARGEREGO is always in the market -- we use this term loosely, because we don't have an operating budget -- for contributions, be they full-fledged pieces or letters to the editor. For more information, see our Submissions page.

The Pulitzer, the Nobel, and the Nebula are awards LARGEREGO has not won. We have, however, had some nice things said about us. We made the Top 30 list at BACKWASH, no small feat, as they don't like many things. We were also reviewed by Netsurfer Digest, which had this to say:|
LARGEREGO You couldn't ask for a more appropriate moniker. This small weekly 'zine presents the musings of a very small band of mostly late-20ish Georgetown University graduates. Some of the content is humorous, some is insightful, and some is debatable. Head cheese Greg Olear discusses in a recent issue the topic of gun control, for example, toeing a delightfully liberal line - but forage a bit further through the commentaries, and we find Greg adopting a fairly conservative stance during the course of a brief monologue upon the Orwellian effects of PC-speak. Editor Brady Richards does a quietly amusing send-up of "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" with his "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Jerks", and it's probable that you've worked or lived (briefly) with somebody who shared some of these traits. There's likely a little something for everyone, here, but it does cause us to wonder a bit about the Georgetown environment. |

Editor & Publisher
BRADY RICHARDS, 26, is a graduate of Georgetown University. Always undecided, Brady has been lucky enough to count the Northeast, the Midwest, the West, the Northwest, and Alaska among his various places of regular lodging. A wide variety of influences makes for Brady's mercurial styles of writing. His award winning one-act play, Erik, was performed at the Donn B. Murphy One Acts Festival in 1996. He lives in Midtown Manhattan.

CHARLES STERNE is a graduate of -- are we spotting a trend here? -- Georgetown University. He is better educated than his fellow Hoya alums, having studied film criticism in the graduate program at NYU. Originally from the suburbs of Atlanta, Charles now lives in New York's East Village.

JEREMY NEUNER, 27, is (sigh) yet another product of Georgetown University. His writing has appeared in Approach magazine and several lesser-known journals. His one (and only?) publishing claim to fame is the illustrated children’s bedtime story "Sky Soup," which appeared in the compilation Say Goodnight to Illiteracy. When he’s not writing for LARGEREGO, he flies helicopters for the U.S. Navy. Jeremy wants the readers of LARGEREGO to know that defending the country is a demanding -- but sometimes interesting -- job. Jeremy lives in San Diego with his fiancée, Becca.
