| FROM THE EDITOR ~ |

Dear Readers: As you may be aware, this newsletter's parent website is TimberBuySell.com. In addition to free news articles and press releases, the site has traditionally allowed companies to post buy/sell ads - albeit for a monthly fee. As a matter of fact, displaying classified ads was originally the primary intent of TimberBuySell.com when we first created it years ago. Buy/sell ads have been posted for a number of catgories in the past, including equipment, logs, mill by-products, standing timber and more. In looking at how we might shape the website for the future and set it up for continued growth, we're considering dropping the monthly fee and allowing users to post classified ads for free. Before we make a move though, we would very much appreciate and value your input so we can better shape our direction and get a feel for user interest. Would you take just a moment to participate in our VERY brief "free classifieds" survey and let us know your thoughts? Best wishes, Craig Rawlings

Before moving to free classified ads though, we would very much appreciate your input in our very brief (three question) survey. This will help us greatly in planning. Thank you!
