Thanks for the clrification on site mechanics, Erik. Unless I'm missing
something, and I certainly might -- It costs about $3.50 to produce each TAG
(1200 copies @ $3600 printing and $720 edit/layout) -- that's exclusive of
mailing costs.
Add the cost of Dom mailing of a single issue and that's $5 each cost to AGA,
add any allocatable overhead costs (envelopes at the very leasts) and it's a
bit higher.
PAMS we basically wrote off a year or two ago and I thought we were trying to
move them out into the comunity without further loss -- so, $3 ought to cover
that. I could be remembering wrong, maybe they cost $1.50 originally and we're
trying to breakeven overall but I thought the cost of the PAMs was hard to
distinguish from the cost of the membership list we also purchased.
