I've got a great idea l Why don't we change the name of the Associa tion's newslet­ter to read [l1fomm tiol j Bnlldin beca ll se in essence that is exacUy what it is.

For exam pie, in tile latest edition tI,ere were 2 (coun t 'em "2") articles tha t ccli id be rt2motely classified as being newsworthy. Boring! Boring! Boring!

I enclose for your p"nlsal a copy of [Allmn) Mosaic, a newle ttcr magazine prod1lced by C.O.L.T. in the U ni ted Sta tes. Mo.<lIic, which is a bj· mOI1 I'hly publication, carries a theme fo r c,lch published edi tiun and at the same lime is not afraid to go oul and charge for ad vertisi ng space.

In ccnclusiOI1, until this !l1forlllatiml BIiIIt'rill presents a more professiona I a rra y of new,,-worthy articles I sha ll continuE' lo deposit it in my cimdm' fi'r.
