The followingå was written by the American Society of Genealogists:
It is with great pleasure that the American Society of Genealogists announces the election of a new Fellow.
Thomas W. Jones, PhD , CG, CGL, was elected based on the quality and quantity of his published genealogical work.
Fellow Jones has been coeditor of the NGSQ since 2003. His excellent genealogical articles have earned him this life election to the ASG. More news will be forthcoming.
Melinde Lutz Sanborn
Outgoing Secretary, ASG
I've read several pieces by Dr. Jones. He knows his "stuff." BUT, since the number of living FASGs is a maximum of 50, you'd think even an outgoing secretary could give us a short biography. This is worse than the standard BMDs we see on the Internet. I'm very disappointed.
Happy Dae.

Patience, Happy, patience. Melinde wrote that more news would be forthcoming. This was an advance message, not a formal announcement.
