Read this column! Actually, I hope you read the whole issue, but at least read the "Changes and additions" part of this column. There are a number of changes of which you need to be aware, both in regard to meetings and announcements, and in regard to the NewsZetter. I just wrote about six column inches of beautiful prose [how else can you describe a line like this- "Litigation is rarely a solution and almost never a productive strategy, except for attorneys"? - on second thought, don\´t answer that!] relating attempts to trim down the Newsletter to the America\´s Cup defense which just ended off our shores - and cut it, because we\´re trying to reduce cost without reducing quality!
