$45 for setup
$20 for first copy
$10 for 2nd to 100th copy
I didn't get into labeling, postage and handling costs .. maybe $5 each
Let's say we get 10 people willing to send us a check in advance.
That's $20 .. $22 a copy mailed to your home.
If we get only 2 people, then $43 .. $45 a copy.
And "a copy" means each month that we publish a BTS. This shouldn't be confused with an annual subscription; which would be 12 times "a copy".
Still interested????

You are the radio star.
Video killed the radio star"
It is about the march of technology and those who are left behind long for a simpler time. Jim said "the days of print are over". Print like "the radio star" or for that matter terrestrial radio are if not dead then they are dying. You see all of the world problems can be traced back to the fate filled day in August 81. Most thought we were entering a new age of enlightenment. Sadly they were wrong. Almost a year to the day later (8/17/82) the first commercially available compact disc was available. Just when those of us who prefer quality over quantity and personality over plastic thought things could not get any worse... they did. What we did not know at the time was that the first Millennials were now among us.
Once again I might be too hip for the room. But for the life of me I can not figure out why Devo was nominated for security of education.
