[BerkeleyDailyPlanet] Another test

[Becky O'Malley]

 Hello! Just a reminder: you’re getting these emails from me roughly once a
week because you wrote to subscribe at berkeleydailyplanet.com.  If you change
your mind, just email unsubscribe at berkeleydailyplanet.com and we’ll take
you off the list.  (Sometimes it takes a while.  If we miss you, write
again please.) The current issue’s date was last Friday, but since then
several new pieces have come in, so even if you think you read it look
again.  You might be surprised.  As always, while I’m working on posting a
new issue, you can see what’s already up by clicking on the “Next Issue”
button at the top of the main page, once it appears.  If there isn’t one,
that means I haven’t yet started posting.  And frequently, almost daily,
during the week new articles are added to the current issue, which you’ll
see by typing berkeleydailyplanet.com in your browser. And now, if you’re
completely confused, here’s the customary list of all the stories from the
last two weeks: Current Issue
