IAS Newsletters 2001

From: "Ron Iles" roniles at eircom.net> on 2001.05.24 at 03:21:01(6548)
Dear Friends,
It was only YESTERDAY that I was made aware that there has been NO
Newsletter since September 2000...NO Newsletter in 2001! Members could
ONLY use PUBLIC Aroid-L to relate to the IAS!. So, apart from "Aroideana"
(which without a "balancing" Newsletter might appear to be a little too
"Scientific"...?), you had no Special Place for our Whole Group? Members
did not get two of the QUARTERLY Newletters. But, the picture and possible
destinations are clearer now. And so, IAS Friends, you may have been
frustrated, angry, disappointed, whatever, but you still remained tolerant
and tried to be understanding and so a big thank you. Your kind forbearance
must and will be reciprocated by care and prompt remedies in future.
I got the "held" material for the Newsletter about two weeks ago. I was
receiving more new material until yesterday. Most of the new was being
saved for the second Newsletter. However now I realise that this is your
FIRST 2001 IAS Post, I will put all which is still topical, plus new
material into a less small Issue. In unseemly haste I had already done my
Editorial and major Edits and some layout by Monday ... The pages were set
to be sent over Wednesday/Thursday night to dear Tricia in Pittsburgh for
printing and then posting ASAP.
Your FIRST 2001 Issue has now to be adapted sensitively to the newly emerged
picture. Jurisdiction has been delayed for a few more days to obtain wiser
judgment. The Editorial will then relate more aptly to the "missed"
newletter scenario. A few details of the older "held" material will be made
more topical. I received the Contents Listing for the next Aroideana last
night. (Please can anyone email me NOTICE DETAILS for the September Event
NOW..?) If there is ANYTHING ELSE URGENT FOR THE JUNE ISSUE PLEASE LET ME
KNOW BY RETURN EMAIL...If you want me to design my own POSTAGE STAMP for the
US Postal Service, brace yourself, otherwise, somebody email me the back
page you used for free mailing with licence number.... please.
The first 2001 Newsletter will be "June". For "Letters to the Editor" for
the Second 2001 Issue, please email me personally or if it is for earlier
consensus, or good publicity for IAS, through Aroid L Incidentally new
member Carol Bonner has thoughtfully suggested reciprocal advertisements of
her Society and IAS in our respective newsletters. Extended Publicity. I
said "yes" obviously but her first notice would be in our second Newletter
2001.
| +More |
If Tricia can handle the print and mail shots I will produce one or two more
Newletters before September. Then the News may be offered at greater and
greater frequency to permit the "IAS" Post to become a vibrant DIALOGUE for
the IAS Membership.
Maybe the otherwise most regrettable discontinuity in newsletters has
allowed time for positive reflection and evaluation for an even happier IAS
in the future?
Wherever you are in the World, the first IAS MEMBERS 2001 "Post" should be
through your letter box in the first half of June.
I hope 2001 is the beginning of a major increase in Members from all over
the World who are as kind as those who established, developed and support
the IAS. Carol has very recently joined. (Welcome!); please how many
others have done the same please? (Your poor Irish NewsEd paid $30 US and
has to work as well!). All your Aroid-L friends who aren't Members -
PLEASE - IAS needs ALL your Support - PLEASE!
Graciously
Ron Iles

Dear Ron,
WELL DONE!!! And welcome to you too as a new member of the IAS, and for the
fantastic potential and future that you have in store for all of us! You
have no idea how excited and happy that so many of us are to have someone of
your caliber being our Newsletter Editor. You are the shot in the arm that
this society has needed for a good long time. Please do continue to let us
all know how we can help you.
Best regards, Scott

As I wrote, you are all so kind, WONDERFULLY so. But.....I have yet to earn
the optimistic accolade you give, else I'll get the Bronx Cheer and
optimisim will collapse like a deflated disgruntled balloon. Succeed or
Fail, I WILL do my humble best! You write very eloquently but too much,
too much.
| +More |
The new friendships are continuously humbling and stimulating but I must try
to remember what brought
me to this place two months or so ago, my erotic passion for Spathiphyllum.
So chaps and chapesses, if you see one in need of me, please holler. When
I have some spare loot I'll come over to God's little acre and get as many
"commercial" cultivars and species as are boasted about but never available.
We don't have
hurricane, floods, or droughts here until 2010 when World jungle is then
just
dying "bits". South West Ireland is THE place for PEACE (Lilies).
Note lusty folks! Calibre, (English and French spadices!), caliber
(American boast). Yours only SEEMS longer with the rough consonant at the
end. Ours don't need stretching.
Especially for Geoff - Frighteningly serious NW "dumb" blonde here last
week, married occasionally, I don't have a
lot of hair but wouldn't like hers, said she'd been married occasionally,
first fortunate died of mushroom poisoning, second died of mushroom
poisoning, third from a blow on the head because he wouldn't eat his
mushrooms.
I'll get Spaths off to you FRIDAY Geoff (the above true story is for your
use
especially) and Myles (please can you ring him)!
Thanks a million
If all goes well, the June "Post", more maturely seasoned will be out of
Ireland and with dear Tricia, Monday next. It will have been a dash,
on-going. Caution! I know Mr. No is listening in and I'm not
paranoid.....!
