Dear People,

A dear friend of my family's is a fairly well known professor of math
at an east coast university.  I am not mentioning names because I do not,
yet, have his permission to do so, and it's not really important.

At any rate, he has agreed to serve as the editor-in-chief for a novel
science newsletter, which even I, non-science minded as I am, think
sounds fascinating.  They apparently have a backer lined up, but the
backer would like a sense as to what the interest would be in 
such a publication.

So, below is my friend's description of the newsletter.  If you think
that you would be interested in receiving this newsletter please drop
me a note via email [my address is shedevil@gw.home.vix.com]. Please
be sure to include your full mailing address so that you can receive a
copy of the first issue.  I will forward this on to my friend.

I do not know what the cost, _if any_, will be for an ongoing
subscription, but sending your mailing address will *not* obligate
you to any subscription fee.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO DISTRIBUTE OR OTHERWISE REPOST THIS INFORMATION!

The newsletter will be a "truth in science and technology" 
publication.  It will concern itself with an art which, in 
our opinion, is well on the way to becoming extinct -- 
namely, telling the truth.  It will consist of short news 
items concerning advances (or regresses) in science and technology, 
the kind of items that such publications as "Science" and "Nature" 
would not consider publishing, either because they are too
controversial, or because they deal with some unpleasant truth.  
The latter occurance is much more common nowadays.
 
We believe we can establish a network of informants who will 
contribute, either anonymously or under a pseudonym, or under 
their own names (as we would prefer) hot news items ranging over 
the entire spectrum of today's culture, with special emphasis on 
science and technology.  Some typical news items might be: an 
expose of neural networks as multivariate statistical analysis 
under a new name; a list of the increasingly baffling discoveries 
that ill-match the Darwinian theory of evolution (as it is 
understood today), and statistical evidence proving that African
witchcraft has been a more effective psychiatric cure than Freudian
psychoanalysis.
  
     I have gone as far as securing a certain amount of funding 
for the newsletter in the form of venture capital.  After discussions
with the board which is considering the funding of the newsletter, 
it has been decided that such funding will be contingent upon our 
being able to put together a credible mailing list for the first 
few issues.
