Here's an introductory message from voyager2151 at yahoo.com:
------------------------------------------------------------------------

We'd like to give you a free subscription to our WORLD SCIENCE email newsletter, which contains some of the world's most exciting science news and photos long before they're in newspapers and magazines. Some of our recent story highlights are below.

The newsletter goes out about every 3-10 days, through the Yahoo newsletter service.

There are two ways to join:

1) Click "reply" to this email, and send.

OR

2) Click on the gray button below. A web page will appear. Click on "join the mailing list instead" at the bottom of the page (not on the bigger "join this group" link -- this is unnecessary.)

The newsletter contains short summaries of our new stories, with links to web pages containing the full stories. It's free: no pop-ups, spam, annoying passwords or gimmicks of any kind -- that's our pledge! The service is supported by ads (non-popup) so that you pay nothing. You can also cancel your subscription with the click of a button.

Below are some of our recent headlines:
