  Could not have said it better Kim. Stories like you suggest along with the
tech stuff is what keeps the magazine alive. Most of us have careers and
families, not to mention cars that consume our time. I find that if I keep
notes as thoughts come to me and then when I have a quiet evening
(sometimes you just have to make time), I sit down, organize them and BANG,
I have an article. Just do it!! You will be surprised how good it can feel.
  I have been told by some people that they like the electronic media
because they can read it,shoot out a quick reply and move on to the next
thing. That is fine and well, but I also enjoy something that will evoke
memories of past experiences and the opportunity to record and share them
with others. Try it, you'll like it!
  George.
