Kristen,
I tried sending this to your e-mail address <kblack -at- Novell -dot- com>
twice and it failed both times. Sorry to have to post this to
the list, but I don't know of any other way to reply to you.

The information is at home, so I'll e-mail it to you this
evening. I think the subscription is only $39 or $49, which is
*cheap* for a publication that lets you reprint its content!

I don't know for a fact that the examples in the original
posting came from The Newsletter Newsletter, but they are
typical of the types of things that show up in their "oops"
section. So on that I'd say use your own judgement. (However,
since they are supposedly "real" examples, I don't think using
one line from an entire newsletter would be considered copyright
infringement ... but I'm no expert.)
Have a great day!
Bev
