<div><font face="georgia, serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="georgia, serif">On another note, the board has voted and decided to move ahead with providing the MASTA Notes newsletter in electronic format. The benefits of this decision include the following:</font></div>
<div><p style="margin:0px"><font face="georgia, serif"></font></p><div><ul><li><font face="georgia, serif">It will be easier to have more content</font></li><li><font face="georgia, serif">Will be easier to distribute to the membership in a timely fashion</font></li>
<li><font face="georgia, serif">The need for advertisers will not be as great, as the cost of printing and postage is very high</font></li></ul></div><p></p></div><div><font face="georgia, serif">If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I look forward to receiving your submissions!</font><br clear="all">
