Submit Your Choices About ABC's Format
Thanks to all who send me such nice feedback
about ABC. It's funny cuz the only real complaint I ever get is that
it's TOO BIG. Here I am giving people something for free and they
complain that I give them too much. Many people suggest that I make it
smaller and send the email version out once a week instead of once a month.
I try to explain to them that I do this for FREE and I don't have a weekly
time slot I can allow for this. (This newsletter is a LOT of work,
believe it or not.) So, I just block off one full weekend a month to
work on this. I do NOT have the time to block off a full day every
week ... sorry, that's just the way it is.Some people suggest that
instead of sending the email version in full, I should just send a table of
contents and let people go to the online version to read it. Well,
that would make my job a LOT easier, but because this newsletter is
completely free, I must subsidize it with ads, which I put in the email
version, so you don't have to wade thru a lot of ads on my website.
Sorry, but unless you want to pay for ABC, these ads must stay in the email
version.
So, I've come up with a few choices that you can pick from, that meet my
needs and try to address yours. If you don't choose to complete this
survey, then don't complain to me down the road that you don't like the
format. If you do complete this survey, I will go with the majority.
Whatever most of you want, I will do.
Enter your email address. This MUST be the email address you are
subscribed to ABC with. If you use any other email address, your submission
will be ignored. Note that there are two text boxes so your email address
will not be picked up by spammers who use robots to gather email addresses
entered in Internet forms. (Example: put Joe in the first box, and aol.com
in the second.) I will only accept one submission per email address, so
don't try to stuff the ballot box. LOL
SURVEY HAS ENDED SO THIS IS NO LONGER ACTIVE

once-a-month html email Table of Contents only, that will include ads and

p I want to receive a
once-a-month plain text email Table of Contents only, that will include
links to the online articles. Along with this, I agree to receive one plain
text email per week which will be a compilation of the ads that I'm used to
seeing in the email version of ABC.
p I want to receive a
once-a-month plain text email Table of Contents only, that will include
links to the online articles. The online version will contain the ads.

receive any ads and would prefer to pay for an email Table of Contents that
includes no advertising, with links to the online articles.
If you selected the last choice, how much would you be willing to pay per
year?
Thank you.
