Periodic W3D Journal / Virtual Seminar^SM

W3D is starting distribution of a periodic electronic W3D Journal on Thursday, 28 September 2000. The initial plan is for 72 newsletters documenting work done at Walden 3-D over the last decade, as well as plans for the next few decades. They will be posted on the web behind a password for those who have purchased or prepurchased them. DSN Addresses of those reviewing the sites will be monitored for compliance to the W3D Subscription Agreement. Those who purchase the W3D Journal will have the opportunity to vote on 1 W3D Journal per 12 Editions to turn into a Virtual Seminar^SM. This Virtual Seminar^SM will be recorded and put on the web behind a password for access by customers and their employees 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The fees are payable quarterly or annually in advance or after the quarter's or year's worth of W3D Journals has been archived. Subscription costs per company are:

• US$1,000 per 4 Editions, or US$3,000 for 12 W3D Journals and 1 Virtual Seminar^SM.
• US$12,000 per 72 Editions, which is the same as the discounted 20% price for those who purchase the first five sets of 12 Editions up front.

Signing a W3D Subscription Agreement stipulating the information will only be used by the individual or company purchasing the W3D Journals and Virtual Seminars^SM is required. New passwords will be delivered to customers upon receipt of payment for each set of 12 Editions, either as a pre- or post-purchase. More extensive watermarks and password protection will be implemented if the W3D Journals are accessed by unauthorized individuals or companies. A Keyman life insurance policy on the W3D editor, H. Roice Nelson, Jr., and accural from subscriptions will insure subscribers a refund for any editions not received if there is a termination of delivery of W3D Journals and Virtual Seminars^SM.
