As part of our electronic publication, the American Historical Review will host an online discussion of Ted Steinberg's "Down to Earth: Nature, Agency, and Power in History" (June 2002 issue). The discussion will be held September 2-23, 2002. The intent of the editors is to take advantage of the accessibility and immediacy of the new medium to add author-reader exchanges to the article site. After the discussion has concluded, the exchanges will become a permanent part of the electronic version of this article.
Participants can send questions or comments of up to 700 words. However, they must pertain directly to the article. To participate, commentators must sign in at the discussion site. First-time participants may have their e-mail address verified as part of the registration process.

Our primary goals for the discussion are to make the exchanges as open and useful as possible and to ensure that they comply with the established standards of the American Historical Review. Therefore, the editors will review each comment before it is sent to the author for a response. Only those comments that pertain to the article will be sent forward. And, like letters to the editor, the comments will be edited for journal style. Inquiries will be made to comment writers if references are unclear. Footnotes should not be used. Instead, citations should be listed in parentheses in the body of the text. The editors also reserve the right to remove statements deemed libelous, defamatory, abusive, obscene, in violation of copyright or trademark laws, or otherwise in the violation of any law. And the comments can only contain noncommercial material. They cannot be used to solicit funds or to advertise or solicit goods and services. The editors reserve the right to prohibit access to the discussion of contributors who violate these standards. If you have any questions, please contact the editors [ahr@indiana.edu]
