Re: Misc. TAG Stuff

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi Mary,

Thanks for the update.  

The AGA website is usually updated when I get my copy of TAG in the mail.
So let's see... I got V13#4 (Q4 2000) around the 1st of the year, and it's
listed as the "current" issue.  

V14#1 was the "lost issue" that was supposed to be out around the end of
April right?  Never got that one in the mail, so the website's still stuck
back on the previous issue.

I still have all of the contest material in its original form.  However,
THIS year's contest closes September 15th, so there will be new material
then. 

I have all but given up on getting archives from the printers, both old
and new.  It is much less hassle for me to just scan them at this point.
In fact, for the 2000 Q4 issue, I was even able to "remaster" the color
originals back into the pages because I happened to have all the
originals.
