Examples

“Some trad apas *don't* have minacs, some *are* for formal zines, many apazines *don't* consist largely of mailing comments, many apas *don't* have dues, some *don't* use the usage of "mailings" or "distributions," and so forth.”

“John seems to think I will have enough to say of interest to the membership to fill my minimum number of pages. I understand that some waitlisters have contributed pages before becoming full members and this seems like a good idea to me. This way I can make a dry run at putting together my contributions each mailing without worrying about having to meet minac. If I can’t make minac while I’m waiting to join, I figure I can gracefully drop from the waitlist before causing any trouble.”
