From the Editor

More Stuff Free!

As you probably know, our original plans for the new, electronic CM were that it would stop being freely accessible after the middle of September, and that afterwards only paid subscribers would have access. Since we began publishing in June, this has given us a lot of time to get most of the kinks out. (Not all! We're publishing in a new medium, and some of the things we'd like to do we have to hold back on because of the technical capacity of our subscriber base.

But on thinking again, we realized that many of our readers have access through the school where they work, and consequently haven't watched us grow over the summer. In fact, what with the beginning of term rush, many of you are probably only now starting to read the new CM.

So the CM board has decided to extend the period of free access another month, through the October 13th issue. Those of you who have sent in subscriptions, don't worry; they're good for fifty-two weekly issues after the free period ends. Those of you who haven't get a few more weeks to check us out.

Right now, we're planning to have the formal launch for the new CM here in Winnipeg on, Friday, October 13th. We'll publish more details next week, but I hope to see as many of you as possible there, holding your appetizers and gazing raptly into the computer terminals. (Just don't spill any drinks on the keyboards.)

As always, send any comments or suggestions to the address beneath my name.
