Change is a good thing, though not always an easy thing. El Residente has now taken on a new form, after some effort, and we have finally gone digital. As of this edition members will now be able to view the newsletter online, and can switch to the internet subsciption at any time. Based on that, we also decided to add a little more effort, and change the look as well. For their insight and assistance in the area or design, I would like to thank Forte Design Studio, as they provided us with many great ideas which we have put into use. Additionally I would like to thank Mary Holmes, who has become our resident(e) proof reader, which I am certain many have realized makes a difference, and the many writers who provide us with such great articles. Lastly, to Allen Dickenson, who has helped write, review, proof, assist in design, and critque, both directly and through personal contacts. It is nice to have a sounding board, especially when you are making changes. Ryan Piercy
