Re: [AGA-mcm] TAG via email request

I say phooey. You produce a gem and right away someone wants to start breaking it into pieces.

I ask, What diff could a few weeks make? It's not especially dated material; it's not a news weekly or news monthly. Maybe we should just announce it's release a few weeks later ;-)

Anyway, in electronic format it would be much easier for us to distribute and less costly to produce and terrifically easier to obtain for free. If we did both it would only add more work and more costs while reducing the revenues we rely on to produce and distribute the paper copies.

Besides, nothing does justice to the color photos like ink on paper.

Is there any chance that, apart of the original "paper" issue, we could receive a copy of the magazine in pdf format? I'm thinking on something like the article of Greg Watson "guide to a dosing strategy", which is downloadable in pdf form... This would help us to sleep better, and we won't need to be pushing every day the postman to double check his bag for if anything left inside for us...
