Friends and Subscribers,

Thanks to a correction from Gerald Sutliff we have corrected our roboeditor
database for email contacts for The Sacramento Bee. Email should be sent to
opinion@sacbee.com or (and it appears they prefer) you may use their email
form for LTEs at:
http://www.sacbee.com/about_us/sacbeemail.html

The MAP Media Email Directory is used by our roboeditor to either add or
verify the Contact: and Website: for all news posted to editor@mapinc.org
Keeping the database up to date is my responsibility, so I very much
appreciate corrections. The directory is at:
http://www.mapinc.org/resource/email.htm

Because of the work roboeditor does before news items sent to
editor@mapinc.org are forwarded to the news staff volunteers, it is much
appreciated when articles are set up as shown at:
http://www.drugsense.org/active.htm#hawk
We are just starting to add Website: to the db, so including it, if known,
helps.

Finally, please do not simply respond or reply with your own comments about
news as the news mailing lists are one way; i.e., are not discussion lists.
The volunteer staff appreciates corrections sent to editor@mapinc.org but,
unfortunately, does not usually have the time to personally respond to
general comments about news items.

The discussion list for our efforts is MAPTALK, which you may sign up for by
going to the sign up form at:

http://www.mapinc.org/lists/maplists.htm#talk

If you do not have web access; i.e., are working with an email only system,
and you wish to subscribe to MAPTALK you may send a note to rlake@mapinc.org
and I will be happy to add you to the MAPTALK discussion list (though it may
take a few days to accomplish).
