I've already agreed with Ed's suggestion in private, and now I do so publicly as well.

For those of you who are interested, I will post an occasional email with a brief synopsis and the link to the article, rather than quoting the article direct from the source. If I come across several articles of interest, I will combine them all together in one post. Those of you who aren't interested, that's what a delete key is for. For those of you who are interested, I am glad to be of assistance.

Agreeable?

Susan

<x-tad-bigger>I, too, am overwhelmed by the volume of my incoming mail.  Similarly, I, like many others, don’t have time to read all the websites out there.  I don’t subscribe to the AOPA newsletter nor browse their website, I get the weekly EAA newsletter but zip through it.  AVweb (very good), Aero-news net and the other aviation news sites rarely get visited by me.</x-tad-bigger>

<x-tad-bigger>Earlier today, I suggested to Susan that it might be a good compromise for her to make a posting, once in a while, perhaps with a headline of “News update” or something.  Those who want to see it may.  Others can hit delete easily on one message.</x-tad-bigger>

<x-tad-bigger>Within that one message, she could put a short description of 3, 5 or 20 articles together with a link to the actual article.  Since it’d be just links, the whole message with 20 references could still be just a few KB – a tiny message.</x-tad-bigger>

<x-tad-bigger>That’d be neat – like having our own clipping service – but without any requirement to spend time or energy on it if you choose not to.</x-tad-bigger>

<x-tad-bigger>What do you think, guys and gals?</x-tad-bigger>
