Thank you for sending me electronic copies of the newsletter Jack.
I have an old, but high quality color laser printer and I print them double sided and get the benefit of color photos in much higher quality than the newsletters that come by mail.
I used to think that I would only accept them printed, but I could survive receiving the newsletter electronically.
Profiles is another story though, I still prefer the printed copies there.
Cheers,
Thomas
