Subject: [alt-beam] Re: BEAM online Magazine
This sounds like an interesting idea. Hopefully it won't die out like its
predecesors. I suppose everyone could submit as many articles as they
wanted, and the person in charge could just pick the ones he/she felt were
most relevant and interesting. This would allow everyone to participate. I
think it would be a good place to discuss new and interesting ideas. It
will also give some of us a break from seeing messages like this (example):
hi, u guys i have an idea about a big walker that you could ride on and it
wood breath fire and stuff so it would be really kewl so could u give me
plans for one since u r all smart and r better at this than me*
* I in no way mean to offend newbies, or people that have trouble typing.
In fact, I think creative ideas should definitely be encouraged, that is,
until they approach a certain level of silliness. The message above was an
exaggeration, but I just wish people would think about what they write a
little before they send it to the list.
My two cents,
Noam Rudnick
