However, they do not get reimbursed for any of their travel expenses (I was secretary for a time and paid my own way to some special meetings) and that may be a big factor as to why they don't participate more. Tish So we agree, more people need to get involved and those who do don't get paid. That does look like it is a big factor. Maybe the system needs to be reviewed. Not getting paid for the job, but at least getting paid for the expenses? Thanks for your input Tish.
