Two interesting ideas that I haven't seen here before. Thanks.

For those who don't feel they have time to create a set of articles for 
their local newsletter, there are some in the Florilegium that might be
good for this, although some of these might be more of the intermediate
level than beginner level.

I have omitted those that I thought would probably be too long for a
newsletter article without serializing and there are probably others
that I missed.

And if you write an article, please send it to me to possibly include
in the Florilegium.
