Sorry about the lack of a Paganistan Weekly last week. The Yahoo calendar was down for 12 days, and that supplies the source material for this newsletter. It was a major inconvenience, but in the more than a decade that I’ve been using Yahoo groups, that was the first real inconvenience. I don’t know of anywhere else in the cloud with that good a track record. Even with the calendar down, somehow announcements of events continued to be posted, so people on the group continued to be aware of the wonderful events taking place in Paganistan. If you want to stay in the loop, you can join at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TwinCitiesPagans/
