<VV> communique improvement idea number 6 + 6B

[Secular]

  Any task may appear as "waay mucho work". Let's say out of 5000 members
  only 10% have the old issues. that's 500 - out of that, let's say another
  10% is willing to help with scanning. That's 50 folks. 

  ummm...out of that let's say 50% have no clue what a scanner is. We should 
  still have 25 members/volunteers for this task. 

  I'm willing to scan [two entire years] of the communique. 

  I think we need a simple guideline for the resolution and size. 

  Regards,


  Tony Irani

  p.s. of course, the swimsuit issue could be scanned in a single DVD by itself :)

  OK, there is a difference of opinion here. How surprising! ggg

  Harry says he doesn't want to reprint old tech ideas, as it is just a
  rehash for members. 

  Ned says less than 10% of our members have all the old issues.

  Who's right? If Ned is right, then less than 10% of our current members
  would be bothered by reprints of any article. Of course way more than 10%
  would be bothered by reprints from last year!

  I think the index is a GREAT idea. Many magazines publish, or sell, an
  index, like Skinned Knuckles magazine. [Which BTW has a Corvair article in
  the upcoming issue: http://skinnedknuckles.net/pages/next%20month.htm]

  Selling all the back issues on DVDs is also a great idea, but waay mucho
  work. It would solve a lot of member storage problems.
