The Chicago Shows List
Now with easier-to-remember addresses!
Shows of note as of 12/29/94
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW ADDRESS INFO
With the new way we're doing the mailings, it's become easier for Andy
to do the list maintenance than it is for Liz. So, effective
immediately, Andy will be taking care of everything related to the
Shows List. Adds to the list, subscriptions, you name it, he does.
The address to mail to is: <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>
Please put something in the subject to give me a clue as to what it's
about, so I know what to read right away.
