- BINGO Clyde hit the nail on the head. ('cept he left out a couple
- of people I know who don't like any of the above.) You can't please
- 'em all. Example. Should an electronic version of the newsletter be:
-
- A/ Posted to USENET
- B/ A NOTES stream on DECUServe
- C/ A NOTES stream on DCS
- D/ E-mailed automagically to subscribers every month
- E/ Available via anonymous FTP from DECUS.ORG
- F/ (Insert your favorite suggestion here)
- G/ (Repeat A-F above for each SIG in DECUS)
-
- Send that question out to 10 different DECUS members, and you will
- get 11 replys back, each arguing why THEIR way is the ONLY way that
- that member can truly take advantage of our product.
