Dave Pizer has asked some good questions which he would like to see
answered in the monthly Alcor newsletter. I'll do my best, Dave.

But, I am starting to wonder if Alcor members really want a newsletter.
After there had been an almost total lack of printed information during a
period of many months, during which Fred and Linda Chamberlain both
terminated their active involvement in the organization, I would have
expected Alcor members to be eager for news. Yet I received only one
communication after the newsletter was distributed.

I had hoped that a .pdf file of the newsletter could be placed on the
Alcor web site, so that any nonmember could download it and print a copy.
Apparently there is some uncertainty about how to place the file on the
site; so, I will place the file on my own site for the time being. I hope
to get around to that today and will put another message here, giving the
URL when the file is available.

I should add that a .pdf file is readable with Adobe Acrobat, which is
freely available for the Mac and PCs; and the file contains all necessary
typefaces and halftones which will reproduce well, even on a
non-PostScript printer.
