Newsletter 1 is largely text, with two small and easily loaded .jpg graphs.   Newsletter 2 has greater graphics content, including .gif graphs of up to about 65k.  The graphics are on separate linked pages, allowing persons with slower systems to access the Newsletter No. 2 text itself relatively quickly.
