Jacqueline is relative new in mail-art. She wrote a nice letter and also an IUOMA-card for me to sign. Which I did and her card is on its way. She also mentions the www.nervousness.org site. I came across that site too. Never really felt welcome there since the ones who run it don’t think newcomers to their site are equal to the others. One should first have sent in things to the most important users of nervousness, and only after that one is ‘upgraded’ on their site. This small observation surely would make them mad and they will disagree. But it felt like that. Also the projects done there were in my eyes far away from the traditional mail-art. Open, all welcome, new and innovative projects. On nervousness it seems most have as a hobby “mail-art”, and aren’t concerned with the art-aspect in it. Craft is what I have seen there. A closed community that functions quite well, but isn’t one I am able to function in
