PAT HERRINGTON OF MOAUG has informed me that COMPUTER SHOPPER will soon discontinue all articles on the Adam Computer (currently being written monthly by Paul Pappas and Faye Deere. 
 
Pat is uring and I strongly concur that a LETTER WRITING CAMPAIGN DIRECTED TO:
     Bob Lindstrom Ed.  Computer Shopper
     #l Park Ave.  llth Floor, NY NY l00l6 
 
IS SOMETHING THAT ALL ADAM GROUPS, NEWSLETTERS, BBSs, etc.  should undertake immediately and urge their member/users to do the same. 
 
Points you might want to make include:  
 
That Adam community finds this to be very distressing. 
That Adam community relies heavily on Computer Shopper as the only large national magazine which supports the Adam User. 
That both Faye and Paul write excellent columns that are well received by the Adam community. 
That you (we) buy the magazine solely for its Adam news and then go onto read the ads but that that is not the primary reason we buy the magazine. 
That you (we) often look thru the index and IF we see Adam articles buy the magazine but if not do not buy. 
The we do buy from the advertisers in the magazine.  (Maybe list some purchase made thru there or some companies you do business with since seeing in Computer Shopper. 
That with all the LOCAL discount electronic, office supply and computer stores now available, that the Ads are NOT a reason to buy the magazine. 
That the Adam Community does support Computer Shopper, makes reference to it in newsletters, on BBSs, etc. 
WHATEVER ELSE YOU THINK WOULD BE HELPFUL. 
 
Also end by stating that you hope they will very seriously reconsider their decision to drop Adam coverage. 
 
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.  TRY TO SPREAD THE WORD. 
 
THANKS
