You’re Making Us Blush
When I asked you all what you thought of the eZine in my last missive, I knew you would be willing to voice your opinions. What I was not really sure about was if they would be positive or negative. In total, the negative e-mail comments added up to one unhappy fellow. The positive correspondence was overwhelming. Some were short, single-line, e-mail “keep-up-the-good-work” messages. Other folks took the time to write long and flattering letters, which were great to read. In addition, readers expressed many good ideas for sprucing-up the Zine, so keep an eye peeled for some new bells and electronic whistles in the near future.
Thanks for the good words and for taking the time to let us know how we are doing. I appreciate your comments, and they are welcome at any time.
