From the publisher: Please shop local

Dear readers,

Shop Local—you hear that a lot. Why is this important? Why not just go for a low price online?
Because those dollars spent online leave the community—forever.

A dollar spent on Amazon is a dollar sent to Amazon’s headquarters in Seattle. That dollar isn’t going to come back here. It will go on to a seller and supplier somewhere else in the country—or somewhere else outside the country. Meanwhile a store owner right here in the community has one less dollar to pay his employees, one less dollar to spend locally or donate to a local charity.

So please, Shop Local. It will make our community that much stronger.

Patrick J. Wood
