Newsletter Coming along

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi guys,

Just wanted to drop a note and let you know that I'm close to finishing
the newsletter, and it's 22 FREAKIN' PAGES LONG!  This ain't Maxine or
GPAS pages, these are Erik-"cram as much as you can into the space" pages.  
And I only authored 5 pages myself!  And I didn't even do the cover photo!  
This will probably be our first triple-stamp issue.
Wooooo!!!!


[calming down] Anyway, the reason for this note is that I decided to
include the GSAS 101 article Steve suggested we xerox for new members, so
NOBODY XEROX the OLD version.  Looking through that article, there were a
lot of things needing updates (contact phone numbers, organizations we no
longer belong to, etc).  I'm considering a "class upgrade" on the binding
for this month only (maybe even 11x17 paper with staples in the middle?),
and we'll offer this newsletter as a bonus for signing up the night of the
auction (and leave the crappy ones I've done for the past year on the
table as samples).  I'll make some extra pages with just the GSAS 101 and
the membership form as well.

Gotta say, I haven't been psyched about doing a newsletter like this in
maybe a year or more.

   - Erik
