✦ Synopsis

We are now entering our fourth year as editors of the Annals, and the time has indeed flown by. At our launch in 2006, we reflected on the memorable comment of Dick Johnson: the editorship of the Annals is more than a job, it is a sacred trust. We knew that the task entrusted to us was an important one, but we could not at the time have anticipated how exceedingly enjoyable our service as editors would be for each of us. As stewards, we've endeavored to maintain a standard of quality worthy of the legacy of our parent organizations, the American Neurological Association (ANA) and the Child Neurology Society (CNS) -a challenge we are honored and delighted to continue as we look ahead to 2009 and beyond. To remain great, the Annals must continue to adapt and grow with changing times, and we begin the New Year replete with optimism for what will be accomplished in the months ahead, and with deep gratitude towards the many hundreds of our colleagues who are responsible for the Annals' success.
