As your publisher, I promise you valuable, motivational and interesting content. I will do my best not to bombard you with an edition so full of classifieds that yours cannot be seen. I appreciate new subbies who are required to wait a couple of weeks before their initial ad is published. I know it is hard to wait to see your ad copy appear. The good news is: a backlog means there are other subscribers waiting to see your ad!

I am also dedicated to preserving quality of subscribers. You may have noticed that I referred to you as readers not subscribers at beginning of this issue. I have kept my word and deleted all bounced addys. When I tell you current subscriber count (and you feel like we are not growing fast enough). I ask you to understand count is not as important as actual number of people who will open, read, and see content which may include your ad. So I thank you loyal subscribers again as I cannot thank you enough. That is why I publish, for you and for me and for our online opps.
