2. Send material as plain text:  no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and 
write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has
posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames.

To the Editor,

A blog on the Israeli Yiddish poet Rivke Basman Ben-Hayim has been posted 
on the CUNY Commons.  Readers can read it and comment on it at:
http://yiddishpoetry.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2011/05/16/not-yet-a-great-yiddish-poet-still-lives/

This post will (shortly) include audio recordings of the poet reading her 
own poetry as well as references to other articles and translations of 
Basman Ben-Hayim's poetry. Readers who know of articles and/or 
translations are invited to add them.
