Dear Mr. Van Hoosear,

I've just come across your article about the formation of your
new
e-mewsletter "The Armchair Astronomer", and wish to request
subscription information.

Feedback: Well I havn't seen it yet but I welcome the formation of
any new newsletter that provides information of an astronomical
nature! I subscribe to a few at the moment, and something which
annoys me is that they all arrive on the first of the month, and
you have to wait 3 weeks before recieving any more interesting
info! I'd suggest an early publication for the month ahead. Say
around the 20th of the previous month. Just a thought!

Also you may want to include articles from Astronet in your
e-zine! Subscribe by sending a message to resource@netcom.com
with no subject but with the message...

subscribe me@host.domain.country.whatever.

It's great to hear of the formation of another newsletter!
Well done!

Kind Regards...

Paul Reilly, Dublin, Ireland

Thank you Paul! I sympathize with your predicament. Getting a calendar
featuring events in April at the very beginning of April doesn't allow
for much planning. Perhaps the next issue will have an announcement
changing the (already flexible) schedule of newsletter publications.

Speaking of ASTRONET...

Todd:

Hi.... I'm the editor of AstroNet. Saw you're including some
articles from my publication... great! Would you consider
putting my e-mail address with them?

Also, speaking of my e-mail address, I have moved. Please
change my Armchair Astronomer subscription to be delivered to:

resource@rahul.net

Funny, my netcom account is cancelled, officially on the 15th
of March, but the company is so bogged down all the time that
they can't even kill my account on time!

clear skies...

Mark Wagner
AstroNet
resource@rahul.net

I will be sure to include your _new_ e-mail address with any articles
I pull from your wonderful e-zine. Thank you for your feedback! Oh, by
the way, if you want to subscribe to ASTRONET, you should send
subscription requests in the form described by Paul but to the address
given by Mark. Got it? Good!

Hi Todd,

Hope you don't mind, but I have included your Armchair
Astromomer page as a link on my Manchester Astronomical Society

Todd,

I enjoyed your first issue of "The Armchair Astronomer". In
addition, I'd be interested in reading your next issue when it
becomes availble.

You're on the list! Enjoy, and thanks for the feedback!
