I can appreciate why Keith wanted to change. The problem with adding a new mailing is the extra work. The old and soon to be restored format is one of the best around. Hence the desire to keep it.

I know there is some breakage because the news is not always still new BUT the content is generally very good and lacking annoying junk. I would suggest the web site be used for the raw material (as the heat-seekers will tolerate that), and the newsletter can be polished.
