Thanks, Jim. I don't plan to stop. But I am exploring options to enable more reporting by journalists. And I think a reader survey is a great idea. Will get to work on that! Thanks for your support.

Thanks, Julie. I appreciate your support. You are paid through August 2025 but because you mailed a check directly to me, the Substack system doesn't track the payment. Sorry for the inconvenience of Substack not recognizing you as a subscriber. I'm still trying to figure out a work-around.

Oh my goodness Claudia, do not stop your newsletter! If you'd like to discuss alternative business models, I'd be glad to do so. One thought - the coverage of your newsletter is extraordinarily broad - one suggestion if it demands too much time would be to narrow the scope (perhaps a reader survey on interest areas to decide?). We subscribers could also do a better job at promotion from the side to garner more subscribers.

Claudia, you are doing a fabulous job!! I hope you will find your way forward along the lines you suggest. I thought I was already a paying reader but this morning’s column says I’m not. Please tell me what my current status is. I am very happy to be a paying customer!! Onward! Julie Allen
