We may want to consider the effect of not pro-rating the dues--instead,
collecting for one year periods at the time of membership.

Also, it looks like we'll not be getting the planetarium in
November/Machholz.  I'm working on a planetarium speaker for Aug or
Sept.  I'd like to get a space artist for it.  Any ideas?
