Thanks for the email regarding the pdf availibility online. I think that is great you have the paper in pdf format. The quality and quality of content seem to increase with every issue. On top of that, you have a great web site here.

Is there a way you can include a direct link to the pdf in the email regarding the new issue's availability online? I don't mind going to my favorites and finding it off the main menu, but I know some people are lazy. I realize it may be impractical to directly attach the pdf file itself, due to bandwidth considerations and since some people's email cannot handle attachments well.

Thanks again for the great job!

Thanks for the kind words. I used to include the .pdf in the email, but many people's computers just could handle it as it would fill or overfill their mailboxes.

So for now we have opted on the link.

We are actually trying to drive more hits back the front page.

Abbieshire to Summit/Lake Edgewater

Belle between Clifton and the tracks.

I want to acknowledge that in my estimation Amy Kloss and Jan Greenfield have packed a fabulous one/two punch on the first page, making it the best one so far. Hats off to the two of you, and to you Jim for setting this up.

This issue reveals that we have a terrific ensemble of talents in Lakewood. The quality is outstanding and sustained page by page.

Bob Ignizio remains rock solid. Keep it up.

Rad's photos always capture the spirit. And Mike Deneen always a pro. Add Todd Shapiro to the sports page. Wow.

What more can we say about Chef Geoff's excellent center spread, covering all the essentials in our kitchens and on the avenue. An absolute joy. Great Players review. I hope Jeff can continue with the reviews, too.

Jim, you come though with a faith-based initiative for city workers. I would expect nothing less than the founder of OBism.

Rita Ryland and Mary Bodnar are looming ever larger as key players with appealing styles and sensibilities. More power to you!

Gallery Watch with Ruth Koenigmark and Christine Kazimer is now capturing new dimensions in our city. I am really enjoying this signature feature.

I am delighted Buckeye is a steady contributor.

My only quibble is that I didn't get enough Gordon Brumm. Like those free range chickens, Gordon Brumm, minding the issues, might be considered a free-range operation. He needs space to roam. I realize space is at a premium. I just want Gordon to know that I missed plunging into the depths with him in this issue.
