Notes from
                     Underground

                                                                  Vol. 13-1 February 2008
 

     Well folks here it is overdue but finally ready. As you saw from the intro page I am wondering if this is going to be the last issue of Notes. The reason for this quandry is quite simply the lack of support in the form of printable material. We have close to 200 members and I can count on two hands the people that have regularly supported Notes by sending in material for publication. Come on people You are all capable of sending in a little something to be published, whether it is something as simple as a collecting note or a more major work it is not that hard to do. I feel like I am banging my head on a wall at times and honestly I am losing the motivation to keep this going. I/We need your support to make this work.
