On the contrary. Once they went to an Ejournal I never looked at the games. I used to enjoy looking over them in the printed version but I dislike looking through games in an SGF viewer. It just doesn't have the same feel as seeing it on a printed page.

I wasn't a member when they printed the journal on paper (which is what seems to be implied here), but I agree with the sentiment. I actually had a bit of discussion about this over email with Allan A., the current AGA president. He said that the cost of mailing it out would be on the order of $10,000 a year, so it wasn't feasible to print out hard copies.

I wonder if you could pay an extra $5 or so a year for membership in order to pay for the postage of a monthly hardcopy (depending on where your mailing address was).

Why not a simple PDF that is nicely formatted and can be downloaded? It gives people the choice of reading it electronically or printing a hard copy out and reading it in bed.

Edit: it would be a newsletter and I would certainly volunteer my time to produce it. That way, Chris could deflect all the formatting complaints on me. Ok, bad idea...
