Straight Track #42

Straight Ahead Into 2001

As the so-called “computer mud flop” around the office, I am pleased to tell you about an exciting upgrade to our email communications. Hoey, Farina & Downes is proud to unveil its new HTML email newsletter. The new & improved HTML Straight Track means that your email will be easier to read -- and easier on the eyes, too! The HTML version also lets us show you photos, graphics, and color, and makes it easier for you to make use of our useful links.

With the new HTML version, you'll still get the same clear, insightful, and reliable information that you expect from Hoey, Farina & Downes -- and we think you'll enjoy reading it even more in HTML.

Some Internet service providers, including AOL and CompuServe, do not display email in HTML from users outside of their networks. You may still receive Straight Track email in text format (our AOL subscribers automatically will be receiving text format). If you are having difficulties reading the HTML formatted Straight Track, or to request text only message, please drop us a line at info@felahfd.com.

Much More In The Pipeline

For nearly a year now, Straight Track has been a forum for railroad health and safety information as well as a place to exchange ideas about the current issues affecting railroaders and their families.

As we approach Straight Track’s one-year anniversary, we have many new projects in the pipeline --- including streaming Internet demonstration videos and CD-ROMs. The video will begin with a look at the initial interview after a railroad worker gets injured, and include follow up demonstrations of the injured railroader’s visit to see the company doctor and his own personal physician. At each point along the injured railroader’s path, HF&D attorneys will explain in detail the steps you and your family need to understand before you get hurt.

If you have any thoughts on what you would like to see as part of Straight Track’s demonstration videos, drop us a line at info@felahfd.com.

Net Track

We are also continuing with our Net Track Seminar. The Net Track Seminar offers officers instruction on how to set up a Web site for their local, lodge or division. So far, we have helped seven local, lodges and divisions get an Internet presence and develop more effective ways to use the Internet to keep their members better informed of issues that effect every railroader. If you are interested HF&D’s Net Track Seminar, please drop me an email at bmcmahon@felahfd.com, or call toll free 1-888-425-1212, to request our free “Web Site Starter Kit” that will explain the first steps to building a Web site for your local, lodge or division.
