Editorial.
With this issue, to satisfy purists (and anyone who counts carefully), we welcome the new millennium for the second time. With that out of the way, let me say that there's always something to kvetch about. In this case, it's the authors. In our very first issue in 1997 there were two articles, by J. West and C.R. Stroud and by A. Rahman, that have yet to be topped. Those guys already demonstrated two leading-edge capabilities of Optics Express that subsequent authors have yet to widely exploit, if indeed they've been exploited at all. I'm referring to sound effects and reader-controlled applets.
