I think that the print newsletter has a place, both for the reasons Russ cites and as a venue for more semi-formal non-refereed articles. Those seem to have died off quite a bit since the print newsletter stopped flourishing, but I think that they do a good job of provoking a slightly more deliberate set of responses than the quick back-and-forth of e-mail is likely to do. It is, however, more expensive in terms of labour as well as postage. I'd like to see it kept but would be understanding if it folded--we are all stupidly busy these days. -- Doug Brent Co-ordinator, Undergraduate Program in Communications Studies Associate Dean, Academic Programs and Faculty Affairs Faculty of General Studies, University of Calgary (403) 220-5458 Fax: (403) 282-6716 http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~dabrent
