Go Newsletter
Issue 135 — November 10, 2016

Numerous readers reported last week's Go newsletter as being censored by Gmail, so we're resending a slightly tweaked version of it to you today as we believe you were affected. Apologies if you've received this twice, however.

This week's normal Go newsletter will go out tomorrow (Thursday) as usual and hopefully make it through Gmail's systems :-)
