hi hans

you had the nerve and the gumption to write:
>Hello calendargirl Janet

"calendargirl"?
you are skating on mighty thin ice here, hans brinker!

>(aka Calendar Control Supervisor aka Janet Paterson aka Cyber-Sis)

also aka giannetta aka gigi aka janet off the planet

>Question: what does TGIF means?

Thank Goodness It's Friday

>Regarding the PWPECU (aka People With Parkinson's Event Calendar Update),
>I would like to make a few -hopefully useful- remarks:
>the calendar on the web-site could inform people surfing,
>who are NOT on this list.

yes it could
our events are included in the website's over-all data base
as well as the one set up for our calendar account

>the calendar on the list should inform in a coordinated way
>the info about meeting and events; I don't see why you can't
>give all the available info in telegram-style...

absolutely
in fact the updates now are copied and pasted direct from the web page
"what you see is what you surf"
i have developed a standardised format for all the data
for consistency and easier scanning

>listmembers should be regularly asked (e.g. included
>with each new calendar-update) to send their announcements
>to the CCS instead of to the list!

done and done
the instruction
"e-mail janet313@xxxxxxx to add events"
is on the web page
and thus is also now on each update

>- placing the calendar once a week is a good frequency,
>but you only gave the events for the next week.
>Most people plan a few weeks ahead, so announcing events
>only one week in advance seems too short notice.
>I suggest you skip the coming week and announce

i agree
and i have decided to try posting three weeks at a time
once a week

any further comments would be appreciated
