Greetings Ufolks,

As many of you know, I have recently undertaken editorship of a new local newspaper: Austin-Para-Times. The spectrum of content included in this new publication is much more in tune with my wide area of interests compared to the focus of the Mutual UFO Network.

While I am always interested in furthering investigations into UFOs, the focal points of my life have shifted.

I am currently reevaluating my role as the leader of Austin Mufon. I have cancelled this month's meeting and may cancel some or all of the remaining meeting room reservations at the Austin History Center. If a current local Mufon member wishes to adopt the duties of organizing and running the monthly meetings I will gladly let them do so.

I personally need a hiatus away from Mufon. It's always been one small part of a myria of projects I've worked on and it IS a good cause. I just need a break from it so that I can focus on what are, for me, much more important and personal.

Sincerely,
Stephen Miles Lewis,
State Section Director,
Serving Travis & Williamson Counties

We missed you at this month's MUFON meeting (this past Saturday, February 23rd). We had one new person show up - giving up the good weather for a chance to meet and talk with people about UFOs. We thank our new friend for his interest and openness. That's alright, it gave me a chance to leave early and get a bunch of stuff accomplished.

For those of you who haven't heard... I'm editor of a new local newspaper: Austin-Para-Times: Not Your Normal News. Look for it at your favorite coffee house or newstand FREE starting this Friday. Also, keep an eye out for our new website (not up yet) www.AustinParaTimes.com

More soon!

Greetings from Stephen MILES Lewis, MUFON State Section Director for Travis and Williamson counties. This is the first official post to this new UpDates page.

Our last meeting was scrubbed due to an error on the part of the Austin History Center - they overbooked the room. So... our next meeting is Saturday February 23rd at the usual location in a different room: Austin History Center at 9th & Guadalupe in the Mayor's Room from 1-4pm. We hope to see you there.

Sincerely,
SMiles Lewis
