atw: Re: "the exponential job game" and agencies

Good point, Bill (Hall).

One of the great things about meeting at VTR, apart from the fact that they 
are nice folk and provide a fine venue, is that they leave us alone to do 
our own thing.

Sure they are promoted by association, but never through undue influence.

It's a fine line to tread, but AFAIK they have asked for nothing in return 
except to give them a hand in stacking away the chairs at the end of a meeting.

Thank you VTR.

We need more like minded sponsors to help our local societies and special 
interest groups to flourish.

Cheers,
