I don't believe this should be in the public access part of the site.
<ad>It costs a mere (tax deductible) $78 per year to join. For that you
receive a monthly newsletter, professional journal 'Keyword' (to which you
are welcome to contribute), members' & friends' meetings, educational
seminars, and our annual conference. </ad>
Also Peter Martin's mail says the rest.

I think that 'members only' is a really bad idea. What about those
contributors who are not members of ASTC(NSW)?
