Forum Newsletter

Now I'm totally confused. How the heck can anyone complain about this, the only way that they could've gotten the newsletter to begin with was to tell you they wanted it and give you their email. If they don't want it all they have to do is say so - so what's the issue? That's how it was spelled out from the beginning.

I'm sorry to hear about one individual, that appeared to have gone out of his/her way to cause a problem. To me it seems deliberate, since that individual had other means to remove his/her name from the list.

I did receive the April issue and will post it on the recipe site as soon as I log off.

Well that is correct and in a manner it is not as clear. When someone signs up at the recipe site they can op-out not to recieve any E-mails from me. Seeing how I author the Organic Corner in the newsletter I made sure that all of those who did not op-out to recieve an Email from me got one every month via the newsletter.

Thanks Hab....

Sorry! There will be a slight delay before the latest newsletter will be posted.

I hope to have it posted sometime this afternoon.

I personally enjoy and want the Newsletter. I can understand the concerns of e-mail addresses being released to others. I questioned 10.5 how he got mine when I received my first copy and after he explained I had no problems with it. This guy should have inquired about it instead of losing his temper and exploding without getting all the facts.

Sorry to hear about all this. I guess it's true: "No good deed goes unpunished."

I'd suggest that registering at the recipe site allows one to opt-in rather than opt-out.

My main email is with gmail and that's what I gave 10.5 for the newsletter. I had to use my old but still active earthlink account to register at the recipe site (what's wrong with gmail?). I started getting two copies of the newsletter, one to each account. Chris explained it to me and it was fixed but it was unexpected.

That happened to me but I solved it by printing one for me and the other for a friend.

Everyone has been sent a Letter from the Editor. This should solve problems that have arisen as of late.

The April issue of the Newsletter has been published via the archives for your reading pleasure. Better yet try this link straight to the April Newsletter

TTNuge · March 31, 2010, 03:05:30 PM

Another Gem!! Great work, now to go back and really read it instead of browsing over everything!

Well that is not quite true. At the bottom of registration page on the recipe site is the following option.

If you leave it checked then you will recieve an E-mail. You can go back anytime and remove the check.

Tenpoint5 · March 31, 2010, 08:07:28 PM

Hey Everyone. I received an Email from Smokeitall (Scott) informing me that he will be carrying/offering the Pigtail Food Flippers from his site smokeandstuff.com Just another option to get yourself one if you are so inclined.

I sent my email to 10.5 wanting to be added. The thing that I have noticed in the forums is that things are talked about but a link is not supplied. For new people like me I would be most interested in knowing were to go find what is being talked about. There are so many threads that I don't have a clue to were to go to even start looking for the recipe site. ;D

If someone would be so kind to post the link I would be so appreciative and I will create an account so I don't miss out on anything.

This is where you'll find the recipe site.
