February 2, 2004 Hello HENCNY List Member . . . and personal best wishes to you and the family, I have a personal favor to ask of you. That is why I am writing you with my personal email rather than using our davidandlaurie.com email as we normally do. Recently, Laurie and I began using a new option for sending emails that allows them to be sent in a fraction of the time. However we have just learned that our December and January eNewsletters may have not gotten to many of you on our email list. So much for trying new technology! Figuring out who did and didn't get these eNewsletters isn't straightforward. This email technology isn't always easy to track. When we send the eNewsletter, we have no way to know if it gets to our over 2200 readers unless we physically write you and ask you if you received them. So that is what I have to do: Would you be kind enough to respond and let me know if you received our December and January eNewsletters? Both of them featured offers that included books for children by our friend, Dr. Gary Parker. We also included information in our last eNewsletter about Dr. Parker's Creation Adventure Museum in March and April, 2004. All of this information is also on our website, if you didn't get the eNewsletter. In fact, we are taking the liberty of resending that email, which we sent out last week. If it is a duplicate, we apologize for sending it twice. But we want to make sure that you receive it in a timely manner, in the event that you didn't get it the first time. And please let us know if you are getting our eNewsletters. If you don't mind, just reply to this newsletter by sending a note to: oaktree@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "eNewsletter Inquiry" in the subject line, and let us know if you received our December 2003 and/or January 2004 eNewsletters (Please indicate if you received one or the other, or both. That will help us tremendously too). We want to continue providing you with helpful ideas and resources for you and your family. Obviously, our ability to send these eNewsletters is one of the main ways we do that. And if you don't want to be getting future eNewsletters from us, you may always unsubscribe by sending a note to "unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" with the words "unsubscribe" in the subject line. Thank you for helping us with this email problem. We hope this email will assist us in fixing this situation so it doesn't happen in the future. Regards, David (& Laurie) Callihan oaktree@xxxxxxxxxxxx www.davidandlaurie.com
