Dear Ms. Calendar Control Person (aka Cyber-Sis) Yes, but.... but.... but a surprisingly large number of our List members don't have Web access.... just email access. Some non-computer savvy folks get their List-posts hard copied from a family member or friend who is a List members. So by not including an event contact-person's email or phone number, these folks will not be able to check for further information about a specific event on the PD Calendar Web Site. It seems to me, IF the purpose of the PD Event Calendar is to get the word out 'bout PD-related events to as many folks as possible, then by not including a way for those without Web access to get that information is defeating the purpose of the Calendar. S'ok... I love ya ANYWAY...
