I want to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution
this year in support of our Lists. It is your generosity that keeps
this operation running and I don't ever forget it. Hopefully
everyone feels the same.

May I suggest that the vast majority of what
is exchanged here on the Lists is truly "news you
can use" . . . words and ideas that advance your
understanding and the quality of your labors.

I encourage everyone to compare the value for
the exchange of words and ideas here on the Lists
with the value of words and ideas exchanged on
television and what purports to be responsible
journalism. Consider the search engine that provides
nearly instant access to refinement of ideas
that go back many years.

Recall that the #1 commodity of exchange is $time$.
Our time as individuals will command a wide range
of offers in the free market exchange of value.
But everybody's time shares a common limitation . . .
FACILITY.

The world's most talented neurosurgeon's time
isn't worth a plugged nickle without a facility
in which to practice that talent. Without a
facility for sharing, all of the ideas and new
discoveries within our community are limited
to the benefit of a small, local populace. The
same idea has to be discovered and re-discovered
by countless others because the first discovery
is not disseminated nor is it recorded for posterity.

The words entered here are shared with a world wide
community in mere seconds and at no particular
expense to the writer. In the grand scheme of things,
our collective $time$ as participants on the Lists
is worth thousands of times more than the cost of
the hardware used to disseminate those ideas . . .
but for lack of perhaps a single light bulb, a whole
library of books becomes instantly inaccessible.

For the price of a few morning rags from the
machine in front of the coffee shop, you can ease
the out-of-pocket burden for those who keep the lights
on.

Bob . . .
