Dear LaughMate,

This publication is really about and for you. The help you get and the responses you get come from readers and LaughMates around the globe. To make communication with us and your LaughMates as easy as possible, We've prepared some guidelines. Please read them before you send us a post or comment you want published. Just wait! When we start getting really busy, some of your important posts may get lost in the shuffle because your subject line is vague or meaningless.

Make sure you are heard!

S-U-B-M-I-S-S-I-O-N G-U-I-D-E-L-I-N-E-S

On all communications - NO ATTACHMENTS! PERIOD!!!!!! EVER!!!

Please, please do NOT send attachments or graphics, not even really clever cartoons. Sometimes, we cannot open them. Sometimes they take forever to download. Besides, we are reluctant to open ourselves up to potential viruses. We will NOT contact you to remind you about the rule. Your precious, clever tidbit will be TRASHED. We will NEVER run the risk of forwarding such things to our LaughMates. If you must send something with pictures or whatever, here's how to do it. Put it up on a webpage. You have a commercial website? You have a free website? Whatever you have, you can put that really clever picture or page that you so desperately want to share with us, up there. Then, with a URL, we can ALL see it. You can do the same thing with nicely formatted documents or Power Point presentations you want us to view and critique.

For regular posting, please, convert your posts to plain text before sending... This makes my life easier by 3/4 (hence doubling the chance that I won't just trash it :-)

Include the following in the subject line of your e-mail, along with the subject information, ILAUGH -

and please tell me:

a) Are you posing a - 'Question'
b) 'Response' - to a question (please mention response to which question as in the example below)
c) 'Comment'
d) Time-Sensitive (you need it posted by...) {no use getting helpful ideas on what to bring your boss's favorite dog after three days after your appointment is past.}
e) private communication

Example of a good SUBJECT LINE:
Subject: ILAUGH - Response - tell Mr. Bond post IL#007

When you write your posts use a narrative style and, please, in your posts, include the following:

a) the name of the person who asked the question
b) the subject/title of the original post
c) and URL (if applicable)
d) a BRIEF snippet of the question
e) your full name, E-mail address and URL
Thanks for all your help and your contributions.
With you, we are a team and can tackle any problem at work or on the WWW (and with a smile :-) !!
