<VV> Alternatives to shipping Communique

[Mark Corbin]

That "solution" has been brought up before, to a storm of hot tempers.

While I'm not in a position to speak for Harry & Mike, I DO know that bulk
mailing requires a certain number of items, so there would be a point where
emailing copies could be a detriment to those who prefer a mailed copy.

I am one of those who prefer a nicely printed, high-quality magazine in my
hand. It's certainly far better than anything that I could ever hope to
print out off the computer. And I DO archive them. Have a collection of
CORSA publications dating back to "Preliminary issue #1" (my only reprinted
copy) and the infamous carbon-copied "Preliminary issue #2. So why would I
want to compromise my library with a cheap, shabby computer-generated copy?

It's certain that H&M has, and continues to, look into possible methods of
better delivery and lower costs. That's their duty and business to do so. I
think that, short of boosting the dues tremendously to cover first class
postage (which would guarantee a huge loss of membership), things are as
good as they can get. So just don't sweat it.
