Re: July Bulletin

[cemahan@aol.com]

It may be that I have lived too long. For 89 years the Bulletin has been the same size....and I love it that way. Once the month changes to season, expect before long what now is "July" becomes September...next it will be 3 Bulletins a year. On social and political issues I am probably the most liberal person to ever sit on the Board or hold office...but on the Bulletin I am beyond conservative. Call me a reactionary. And I bet I am not alone. Clarence

Cheryl: I think season would be better also, might save a bit of heartburn, Good 
Idea. I think the Bulletin staff does a marvelous jub with their present 
constraints.

Kitty, Bob and everyone,



I also think the Bulletin is the wrong size, and to stir the pot further, I
think it is time we stop with the "month" name and transition to the 'season'
name - Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.  We could still aim for the month, but
this way we would stop the "Where's my ____ (insert month) Bulletin?"



This issue is beautiful!



Cheryl
