So here’s our first holiday wish, one sent by an esteemed Sarasota resident:
More about Joe Steinmetz from Sarasota History Alive.

I have never had any problem receiving my e-mail msgs from you-all over the years – HOWEVER, lately your msg appears as a H U M O N G O U S spread of text which I cannot read……what’s happening out there ??!! can you FIX this annoyance ??? THANX, Deanna scudo
Hey Deanna, so sorry for this “annoyance”…
if you’re speaking of the amount of words, for that I apologize (I just get so excited!) and I promise I won’t feel slighter if you scan rather than read. Not everyone is as passionate about local history, I understand.
If it’s the physical size of the actual text you’re receiving, that’s not us.
DO let me know if by humongous you mean “Too Long; Didn’t Read” and I’ll try to get my message across quicker so as not to cut into your day.
