As you're probably aware, this privilege costs you nothing and is worth approximately what you pay for it. All it is is a list of links to new pieces for you to click on if the title interests you.<br><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">Now, however, I'm shifting away from putting out a completely new issue every Friday to simply posting new contributions as they appear. This might mean that you as a subscriber will get more but shorter emails.<br><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">As always, if you're tired of getting them, just write to <a href="mailto:unsubcribe@berkeleydailyplanet.com">unsubcribe@berkeleydailyplanet.com </a>to have your name dropped. You can always look at the regular front page by typing <a href="http://berkeleydailyplanet.com">berkeleydailyplanet.com </a>into your browser--you don't have to be a subscriber to do that.<br><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">In brief, there are two reasons for this change:<br><ol><li> The Planet has become almost entirely a journal of opinion, and this change reflects that.</li><li> It's easier for me.</li></ol>Read my editorial for more explanation. Thanks for continuing to read.<br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif" class="gmail_default">This list was compiled at 2:30 on Sunday afternoon, with some pieces which are new since Friday.<br><br>
