[L-USA] Intro info so far

From: Daniel Servatius (elf@pclink.com) | Date: 1999-01-29 23:13:09 UTC-06:00

Here's what I have so far. Are we all between 33 and 54?
(except for Rachael... I think she's about 20)
Nobody 12? Nobody 80?

If you don't see your name and you think you are a person
newcomers may want to contact please send a little info
including perhaps your age. Marty Chamberlain I had to
convert. He said he was "5 in dog years". My math puts
him at 35. Or would that be 5/7ths of one human year?

I've wondered where this new 'intro' list will reside as it grows?
Would it make sense to have it somehow as part of the e-mail map on the
home page? It almost seems more logical, rather than a single state
contat person, to have all in a given state, who are interested/willing,
to have their contact info available?
Just a thought.

Dan'l:
And yet another idea, for what it's worth:

I like the concept of these intros, as a way to 'meet' fellow
letterboxers. And, I think its good to share rubberstamp images, for
those of us with limited experience, to be able to share ideas,
techniques, concepts, etc.

Actually, two ideas.

IDEA #1
What about a part fo the web page that was something like "Meet the
Letterboxers", where the intros now being developed might reside, maybe
not quite as abbreviated in terms of one line of text, and, maybe a
place to display one's personal stamp. For me, it would be an incentive
to finally get one done! Unlike clue stamps (which some may want to be
kept as the surprise/reward for a successful find), these would have no
other way to be 'collected' save for the stamp in a visitor's book.

IDEA #2
I think it might be interesting to have a place to display failures,
i.e., the backwards text, misspelling (did I mispell ' misspelling'?),
etc. For the new stamp carvers, it might show how we can all make
'misteaks' (sic), might be fun, might make 'the perfect stamp' less
daunting of a goal.

Just a thought.
Erik

Nooooo... I can't speak for Rachael, but RachEl's 17. I don't know what else
to say. Many-a-hobby.
