Raw Notes? Why that title for CofA 12?

.
The header at the top of City of Angels Blog in 2012 says "Raw Notes" and people may wonder why.

As I wrote this blog for four years, things went real fast. Often I’d begin work on a story, more would happen, and I’d get sidetracked, then never get back to that interview or research. Those notes full of information then languished in my files for as much as four years.

In 2011 I stopped to catch my breath and so had time to look through four years of notes. The results will be posted at CofA12 starting in January

I found in my files hundreds of stories, most with information that has never been published before about the pedophile priest crisis in the Catholic Church. So the Header for City of Angels Blog in 2012 is "Raw Notes" because next year I'm publishing all my unfinished stories from the past four years of doing City of Angels Blog, along with coverage of current events on the issue, with the unique inquisitive perspective CofA readers have come to expect.
