A new committee - I hope that they take into account the realities
of getting folks to pay money to join anything and I am sure they
will.
Also, something that has been bothering me for almost two years:
I direct and own a mailing list that was originally (and still is)
part of the AIS round-robin 'system'. I have taken the "don't ask,
don't tell" approach re AIS membership.
*Is there anything in the by-laws about the robin system?
We are now up to 69 people and since the list is on the ONElist
free to the public, it seems counterproductive to question
new subscribers - we have had some new AIS and Siberian Section
members from our little SIBROB.
