Rick, I don't care much either way. If you want to send some text that will fit on the back of a postcard, I would be happy to print & mail them. The advantage of the postcard is that I can crank something out tonight & have it in the mail tomorrow AM. If it doesn't go out tomorrow AM, it's not worth sending (in my opinion). If you can crank out letters & stuff them in envelopes with labels tonight (or tweak & mail-merge the postscript output), more power to you! Just let me know in the next hour or two. My opinion is that this late in the game, it is probably more important to get the announcement of the meeting in a postcard than create a letter with all that other stuff, but I will defer to whichever you want to do. - Erik On Fri, 10 Jan 2003, Rick Rose wrote: > Hi Erik, > > The reason that I was thinking about a letter this time is because of all > the additional announcements that the board decided to include in the > newsletter this time.
