Default THANKS for the behind the scenes comments too.

Some don't want to be public, believe me, I get that. Got a couple of interesting emails from OLD 'Pubbers, who I haven't heard from in what? decades??? Anyhoo...

Not much comment here, but I am getting comments, critiques, and even criticism, which I welcome, from some great folks, so thanks.

It seems the biggest objection, SO FAR, is the PAPER AND INK, and why, why, why would I want to do that, when email newsletters have become the de facto standard these days??? And they felt my reasons were LAME, and I got told why they thought this, and some very good counter points came up.

Maybe I am too much in LOVE with my touch and feel hotsheet, when many would prefer a digital thing anyways, and with EXCEL type spreadsheets, wouldn't many want to use those things over PAPER AND INK?

I'm not so stubborn to say, MY WAY, which is the reason I am publicly fleshing the idea out, something never done before, usually the PRE launch discussions remain behind closed doors and private.

So, my TESTING may have to be split into DIGITAL vs PAPER AND INK. It could be my brain still has one foot in the old MAIL ORDER world and I'm just hanging onto that for comfort, when I need to hear:

Give the people what they want.

And today, even many lottery players are using apps to play and cash tickets...and the idea of PAPER AND INK may turn many away.

I do appreciate all comments, and giving some serious thought to NOT being stubborn and just making it a bi-monthly DIGITAL only product.

KISS, was something more than one person told me...and maybe PAPER AND INK and pens, markers, rulers, dice, crystal balls ARE the slop and mess I am trying to avoid.

THANKS to you readers, and those who prefer to communicate away from spying eyes, you are appreciated.

Gordon
