And I can see some merit in most if not all of them. However; I am afraid this is the handwriting on the wall. While I agree that those who advertise want it to be timely, and they also want it to reach the right "audience", I am concerned about the effect it will have on the GSD Review. If there can be room for both, that's great. However I would deeply regret the loss of the Review. I have my Review collection dating back to the 60's. I don't care if I have to wait for it. I savor each edition and often refer back to them. The GSD Review is a keeper. The E-magazine is not a keeper, issue after issue, year after year, in the same sense the The GSD Review is. Yes, you have the gratification of enjoying it instantly on line, and quite likely it will be more timely but when that issue is gone, it is gone. While I agree it could be a wonderful edition, I would hate to see it be the only edition for several reasons, some of which have been mentioned. Long live the Review, and thanks to all those who have worked so diligently to get it to the fancy over the years, Jane Bennet, Lois F., Gail Sprock and presently Susan Casey. My final thought, I see nothing wrong with progress, as long as it doesn't "kill and bury" a long, respected and valued publication of the GSDCA.
