Dennis,

Yes, I know that is what we are doing now...that was my point!  Correct
me if I'm wrong but the "hungry for copy" AIS already had something like
what I'm suggesting.  It was called "Flight Lines".  Excerpts taken from
snail mail round robins.  What we should try to do is to get Libby Cross
on this list (or some volunteer)...not me..too busy...to glean
information for the Bulletin.  Call it something like "News from the
Net". 

We as a group are sharing invaluable information at a much greater pace
than in the past.  I'm sure this information would be much appreciated
and useful to those members not on this list.

And I'm sure you were just kidding about "hybridizers self esteem"? 
Speaking for myself I would love to hear feedback on any of my own
creations...good or bad!  This would only help me in my quest to produce
good hardy, rot-resistant, leafspot resistant and georgeous iris.
