He has also owned three Betamaxes, making him something of an expert in short‑term expectations for sophisticated hardware (needless to say, he has recently purchased a DVD player). An editor at Reader’s Digest Select Editions for many years, he is also a high school debate coach, whence he attained unexpected national prominence as a member of the prestigious Tournament of Champions advisory committee. Mr. Menick, who lives in Westchester County, New York, can be reached via his website, www.jimmenick.com, but please note that he erases all messages that appear to be come‑ons for adult websites (well, okay, he erases almost all the messages).view less
