[V8] New deal

[Roger Woodbury]

Well, here it is.  I am making a preliminary announcement to this list
because you all have endured my diatribes over the years, and some of you,
probably in an effort to shut me up, have suggested that I actually writer
MORE rather than less!  Amazing!

Actually it has been in my planning for many years to move on and to write
more and on a regular basis.

Therefore, I am announcing here FIRST, that sometime around the first of
January, I will launch a new website called www.acadiareaders.com.  This
website will be a vehicle for my writings among other activities.  There
will be several pages on the website that I am planning right now, including
an automobile page where there will be miscellanenous ramblings about things
automotive and eventually, my own car reviews.

I am also going to have a sort of editorial page where I plan to research
and discuss various social or societal topics that are of a sensitive
nature.  I think that this section in particular might include an
opportunity to support the website AND make a chartible contribution to
whichever cause is being presented. 

My plan is to change and add something at least twice a month and
eventually, make it once a week.  Pictures, articles, stuff.

No.  The site is not a freebe. I am advertising on the site and there will
be other things that hopefully will eventually generate enough cash to keep
it in operation.  We'll see.  

I have thought a great deal about the way the Internet is changing the way
that we communicate, and believe that this will become a new form of
publishing.  I know little to nothing about programming, and want to know
less, I think this will get launched on the first and then for the first
quarter I will have to flesh it out.  I own the site now, and will get it to
the host shortly.  

Perhaps you folks will visit!
