AUUGN, if it is like any other publication, costs a lot of time and money
to produce (more than you'd ever imagine unless you've produced a periodical
yourself). I see no problem with them selling advertising space to defray
costs.

Indeed, this has been de rigeur for some time (recall AUUGN's back cover).
The end result is simply that AUUGN will be cheaper to members with this
sort of advertising subsidy.

Secondly, I would prefer that employment adds be loose leaf included since
they contain a short lived message that I'd just as soon didn't clutter the
pages I'm going to keep.

PS: I have nothing at all to do with AUUGN, expect for being an occassionally
satisfied reader.
