Baren Digest Thursday, 15 August 2002 Volume 20 : Number 1927 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: G Wohlken Date: Wed, 14 Aug 2002 12:56:05 +0000 Subject: [Baren 18907] Re: baren digest, Vol 1 #435 - 10 msgs Patti, I will do something when I edit the digests for the Baren archives to eliminate the whole email address of members. These will show in the future as (in my case, for instance) blueman#somewhere rather than blueman#pantek.com Of course you will see the addresses as complete in the digests and messages you receive directly in your email box, but online at the website itself in the archives, your address shouldn't show at the top of your message. Julio, in your list you have the place for the Sacred Trees & Endangered Species exhibit as Kent State University, but it is at the Meyer Center of Big Creek Park in Chardon, Ohio.

The addresses make it possible to go back later and contact an individual from his digest email address... If you want to render the addresses unusable for "email harvesting robots", then simply change the @ in each eamail address to some other character... # for example. That will effectively conceal the addresses from programs which scan the web in order to build large email address lists.

Back then I was doing lot of woodworking veneer stuff and learning how to build guitars & violins. The thin wood was perfect for my projects then. Like David said, this thin stuff is pretty useless for our hanga printing....everytime I have tried to save a buck or cut corners by using thin stock, I end up having severe problems with the wood warping....lots of wasted time & paper. thanks....Julio Rodriguez ------------------------------ From: "marilynn smih" Date: Wed, 14 Aug 2002 15:33:56 -0700 Subject: [Baren 18910] Re: Baren Digest V20 #1926 Okay, I must have missed mail on what we were to do with the firemans prints that were sent to us. The packet is wonderful and I would love to keep it and exhibit when and where I can. Am I than to make a contribution to the fund? And what is considered reasonable, I am not sitting on a pot of gold here but think they are a wonderful part of our history. As far as size for the exchanges i was under the impression that a little difference was acceptable because japanese papers do vary. i was not talking of something much smaller, just, centered mine for aesthetic reasons. It is a horizontal plate and with the extra on the sides on the horizontal rather than the vertical it simply is not as aesthtically pleasing. I have printed about half the group and have all the paper cut. But i did purchase other paper I can use and recut it. As a coordinator I think I should make a good example here and certainly wish to follow rules and guidlines. But also as an artist I beleive in a bit of slack and like work aestically pleasing????? Most certaily something half the size is not appropriate and I do understand the firemans prints being a group donated for a cause and more slack there being acceptable. Most assuredly we have such a group of talented artists who exchange work that we want to keep the quality high and the standards accetable. If you have opinions than let me know.

So many of them are so silly, you can't help but wonder how they expect anyone to take the message seriously. On the other hand, I've gotten nothing but worms and other nasties unexpectedly in my home mail box. One was from "sexy Japanese girl" or the like, and I thought possibly that one might have had something to do with the Baren website, altho I suppose most of them have come from my own web site exposure. I've had the PC wiped twice in the past 6 months. I figure it's my responsibility to keep the virus/ugly definitions updated, altho anti-spamming software sounds really delicious.
