    DearSir/Madam,
    
    Hereare some more article and letters from members (please see theattached).  
    
    Justto let everyone know, I'mgoing to be winding things down a bit at this end from now on.   Overthis past year I've been sending stuff out at the rate of around onea week but from now it'll be more like around one every ten days.   Itmight not seem much of a difference but between mailings it'll giveme three extra days of rest, the ability to do other things andindeed more time to research things on the internet for the campaignsthemselves.   This will mean instead of 52 reports per year there willonly be 36 but it will soften the work-load quite a bit.
    
    Anyway,with no further ado, I'll go through the articles.
    …...............................................................................................................................................................................................
    'Smallearthquakes from fracking are not as bad as they might seem.'  
    
    Orat least this is what we are told by some of the academics at GlasgowUniversity (also see the attached).
    …...............................................................................................................................................................................................
    TheGerman Green-Energy Revolution.
    
    Wind-farmsaplenty.
    …...............................................................................................................................................................................................
    TheFederal Bureau of Land Management declares war on the wolf.
    
    Pleasesee the second attachment on how you can help.
    …...............................................................................................................................................................................................
    Campaignfor the Built Environment.
    
    Thelast attachment is about Regional Identity and how buildings changein both materials and styles as you travel around the country.  
    
    Theeventual aim would be to put all these papers together in a completedform, the only trouble however when writing about architecture, isthat you need to have a lot of pictures in order to demonstrate whatit is you're writing about.   It is a technical problem, pictures takeup a huge amount of information, a hundred and something KBs., whichis an average size of a single picture, multiplied forty, sixty ormore times over quickly adds up to say eight or ten MBs.    Trysending that amount of information as an email and it either won'tsend or if it is sent you'll have trouble opening it the other end.  I'll see what can be done of course and it'll probably be just thequestion of dividing them into chapters and sending them out indifferent batches.
