 Oh yes,yes, yes, I second the motion- lets do a mythology themed exchange
one of these days!
 There are deep taproots here...as Minna said,
  < Invention of writing; hours and minutes, months, 7-day week, all the
basics we have inherited from Eufrat and Tigris would be great inspiration.
And man-bull figures in Nimrud,  Ishtar gate to Babel, ziggurats, etc.
Extremely interesting>

 Three more sheep in the fold, thank you, thank you, Monica Bright, E B
Atwood, and Ms. Jeanne N Chase...

On the subject of great member sites visited, April's is always inspiring
and stimulating as is our Maria's, whose apparent ceaseless energy and
dauntless courage in the face of 'life happening' are quite astounding, and
always more than welcome. To say nothing of her feisty sense of humor and
uncommon common sense ...

  Last, but not least, a public 'Thank you" Charles, for your post re war
and peace

I agree with you, Mike, as far as art and artifacts
go. Today's news about the burning of the national
archives and library only make it worse.

Subject: [Baren 21351] Re: thanks, but still one more CALENDAR question 


Hi, thanks Philip, Suzi, Joe  and others.... me thinks this is still 
confusing to many of us and it seems mea culpa !!!!


Re the POSTCARDS 4X6  (any orientation ok) should be the largest paper 
size sent (the image plus border being 4 x 6)....the image can be a bleed or with a border...

Re the other calendars.....uhmmm....I had posted before that  11H X 8W 
should be the max...but a vertical orientation is probably not best suited 
for Landscapes ?  uhmm ? what to do ?????

I had wanted to use standard 11X14 stock for printing the calendars but is 
there any reason why  we can't go to a square format and let you do any 
orientation you want. ? 

With so many Baren projects underway and more to come {;-) there is no 
reason for anyone to feel bad about not joining the calendar 
project....many people contribute in different ways and it all helps the 
group. 

thanks....Julio

Subject: [Baren 21352] Baren Summit... 

I leave this Thursday to spend 12 days in Japan with my sister and Mom and 
Dad.  I'll return the 29th.

Are you thinking about attending the Baren Summit June 14 through the 22nd 
but haven't registered yet??  NOW would be a good time to go ahead and 
register, I think.  Time is running out and I think we ought to set a 
registration deadline of May 1, don't you?  Register 
at   http://www.barenforum.org/summit/

I'll be setting up tables, building more stools and chairs, cutting some 
Toshi Yoshida style practice blocks and generally running around like a 
chicken with my head cut off in order to prepare for your visit as soon as 
I return, so if you've been thinking that you'd like to join us here in 
Kansas City but just haven't gotten around to registering...  Please 
register BEFORE MAY 1 -- then I'll communicate with everyone registered in 
order to schedule slide presentations, and our other fun stuff in early 
May.  Spencer Museum visit will be Thursday, June 19th.

Thanks!
