Wow. Thanks so much for forwading Anner's message to the list. It was so well
said and thought provoking. I especially appreciated the paragraph below. It
is so often the case that people suggest ways to attract and keep members but
aren't willing to help implement their ideas!
Wouldn't it be great if you could find a way to attract those helpful busy
beavers (like Anner) with the "ask not what the AIS can do for you, but what
you can do for the AIS" attitude!
