Well I'm not a member cuz I can't afford it or probably more
truthfully it's not on the financial high priority list.  & given the
hits we've taken lately I don't foresee that status changing anytime
soon.  So I volunteer & as compensation I get 2 read some stuff I like
& hopefully help some folks at the same time.  But maybe I'll get
enough credits 2 get a membership 1 of these days.
