First, we'd like to assure you that our intentions are to make sure that people who are interested in educational technology hear about the magazine and have the opportunity to request to receive Syllabus. Secondly, we'd like to point out that Syllabus magazine is offered FREE to qualified education professionals. Thirdly, we'd like you to know that we try to target only the owners of selected lists, rather than posting to the lists directly, in an effort to allow list owners or moderators to screen as appropriate. This is not an attempt to sell subscriptions over the Internet. We're sorry if this announcement is considered offensive by anyone, but we do want to distribute our message to those who might benefit from receiving it.
