<VV> Re: E-mail vs.hard copy

[J R Read_HML]

As I see it, even the local club newsletter would not arrive to some 
(possibly even founding) members if it were in E form only.  This means the 
paper form would still be needed for at least some folks (for varying 
reasons).  So, does it make sense to ask essentially volunteers (newsletter 
editors) to publish in two formats?  And, how many would want BOTH formats - 
even though they could print the E version.

Sure, I'd like to get it sooner via email, but I recognize that there were 
many members before me (and most are still around offering help when needed) 
who would only receive a newsletter if it were in paper format.  With CCE 
(don't know about others), it is timed to arrive a few days before the next 
meeting.  So, not only is it an update on what is going on, but it is also a 
reminder that the meeting is next week.  I suppose the reminder aspect would 
work for those who read email daily, but not for all.
