You'd get to know the funny handshake... :wink:

No I wouldn't. I don't touch guys below the waist.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Yeah, you're at least 6 numbers, seven if we use comeliness.

Ewww!

Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Lol - yeah something like that youtube post!

Seems that sparked a bit of debate!

I was thinking about this is purely philanthropic terms. I have been on this hiatus for a few years doing my PhD, but that will all be over in a few months and it is back to work. I will be on a decent salary again and should be able to contribute both financially and time-wise to such an enterprise - as I am so passionate about the hobby.

That being said I may have jumped the gun by a few months as I need to have this dang thesis bound and submitted and working again before I can really support such a thing. I am in total agreement on it being Acaeum-based.

Anyway, I was just floating an idea at this stage - not making a formal proposal. Perhaps we should keep it on the boil though

Well I really like this idea and think it is worth pursuing.

To do a newsletter the only costs would involve print copies and the cost of putting it together as a pdf unless someone with the tech knowhow can volunteer to help.

I'd like to start a new thread and begin working out what people would like to see in an Acaeum newsletter. Does that sound good?

Secret handshakes and cosy paddling initiation rites aside, I think this sounds fun. Of course, we already have this in a sense, with the forums, the Acaeum dinner, Gencon games and the Acaeum Texas convention, and other informal meet-ups and helping-arrangements. Anything that brings us closer together and provides more interest and resources is all good by me

this does sound like an interesting idea, if financial help is needed to help get this going, please let me know.

Well, I like associations letting me in

and I'm not in principle against some form of fees being paid (low, very low fees...) IF this could mean getting a quality newsletter. Nothing beats paper for some relaxing reading...
