Hello MWLM Readers!

In an effort to streamline our operations with an enhanced focus on our print magazine, we are preparing some changes to our Web site, starting with the upcoming fall 2008 issue. The look, feel, and layout will remain similar to how it is now, but we’ll be decreasing the amount of online content, in favor of more print content. Over the past three years we have built a strong readership, and we trust you will continue to enjoy our product and remain faithful to MWLM.
