	Hi Frank!

	The zine discussion has been shunted to chat, I think.

	The reason that the core group is so quiet may be that
	the ideas recently flowing take _real_ sweat.  A guaranteed
	committment off time (blood, sweat, and tears?).  There've
	been occasional explosions of interest in various 
	hotbuttons items over time.

	It's one thing to sit and jaw (type) for 20-30 minutes; 
	and quite another to commit 5 solid hours/week for a year
	or two.  

	gary
