Frances, in the words of one of my teachers:
     Fleming, you are a problem!  What are you, Fleming?

This was a lot more work than I first thought, but I think I have
something that now works.  I had to change the copy a bit when I
re-arranged things, so please re-proof read.  I had to shorten the
bits on SLUG so they would fit within one column - to allow the
flyer to make some sort of sense in both it's folded and unfolded
state.
                         [And blame Fleming for this extra work :-)]

You can get the new flyers from:

If you want a test flyer with labelled columns (so you can work out
the paper feed for your printer) then try these:

   http://www.sussex.lug.org.uk/flyer-test.sxw
   http://www.sussex.lug.org.uk/flyer-test.pdf

You need to print the second side so that column F is behind A,
E is behind B, and D is behind C.  On my Laserjet I just had to feed
the top of the page in first both times.

Folding Instructions:

With the page laid out thus:

   +-----+-----+-----+
   |     |     |     |  A: should have "What Is Linux?"
   |     |     |     |
   |  A  |  B  |  C  |  B: should have "What Is Knoppix?"
   |     |     |     |
   |     |     |     |  C: should the the end of "How Do I Install Knoppix?"
   +-----+-----+-----+

Fold column C over column B thus:

   +-----+-----+      
   |     |     |        A: should have "What Is Linux?"
   |     |     |      
   |  A  |  D  |        D: should have "What Is SLUG?"
   |     |     |      
   |     |     |
   +-----+-----+      

Now fold column A over column D.  You should see column F (the logo).
