(My Map Entry tells what `UNIX Today!' is, and mentions who can get it.
 It also indicates what we're looking for in news and writers)

I've gotten three complaints on the map entry.  I've gotten over 75
"thank you's" for giving people a way to get in touch with us.

We (UNIX Today!) are on the net for a reason.  We like to keep track of
what's going on here.  We like to let people know that our publication is
a two way street, and that input from the readers is important to us -- by
any channel.

I can live with three complaints.
