The USMA Executive Director and Metric Today Editor, Valerie Antoine, asked me to send you the following message: Valerie Antoine has been fighting the flu, so the newsletter will be pretty late this time. In addition, the Sep-Oct MT was mailed in mid-September and some members received their copy in September, but others report that they didn't get theirs until late October. Looks as if our non-profit mail sits in the various post offices until it is convenient to deliver it. I guess I would not expect to see the next MT until December with the time it takes for proofing, printing, and preparing for mailing. And then with the X-mas mailing crunch, we might not see that issue until the mail rush is over. Don Hillger, Webmaster
