Subject: A New York Times discussion group (as suggested by Bill Jacobsen)

Hi all. At a recent Humanist Community Sunday Forum,
Executive Director Emeritas Bill Jacobsen commented
that he would be interested in attending a monthly
Humanist Community New York Times discussion group
(since he reads the New York Times every day, and says
that he really finds their articles interesting and
well-written).

Bob and Elaine Dodd have generously offered to host
the first such discussion group at their home in Palo
Alto from 1:30 to 3pm on Sunday, September 17th
(immediately after the Humanist Community Forum and
lunch). Directions to their home are given at the end
of this e-mail.

If you might be interested in such a group and don't
subscribe to the New York Times, you can either visit
www.nytimes.com to read their articles, and/or sign up
to receive free daily New York Times e-mails which
summarize, and have links to, the following day's New
York Times articles. Instructions for signing up for
these e-mails are given at the end of this e-mail.

Anyone can also forward online New York Times articles
to any e-mail address that they want. So we will set
up an e-mail list that people can forward interesting
New York Times articles to (so that the members of
this e-mail list can read the articles that other
people forward to the list).

If you would be interested in attending the September
17th discussion group, please reply to this e-mail. 
If you do, please let me know whether you would be
willing to be added to the e-mail list (for people to
forward New York Times articles that they find
interesting to).

To get to the Dodd's home from where the Sunday Forum
and lunch are held (at the Mitchell Park Community
Center) just head north on Middlefield Road about 1.3
miles and then turn left on Webster St. (at the second
left after Colorado Ave., two blocks before Oregon
Expressway).  Their address is 2505 Webster St.
