The Order of the Iron Test Pattern is over 25 years old. Once upon a time we 
had 2-3000 members. In those days, you had to be in broadcasting 15 years to 
apply. That is no longer necessary. Now, like then, you had to be a survivor 
of the broadcast industry. That can be true of someone after their first 
day. There are no fees, dues, etc. We do sell certificates to hand on your 
wall, which come with 2 guarantees. And we have lapel pins. We do an annual 
awards meeting at NAB every year. One year we gave the Iron Couch Potato 
award to Gene Pooley. Pooley, while working for Zenith many years ago, 
invented the remote control - thereby making possible couch potatoes. It's a 
toung-in-cheek group and we're out to have good clean fun.
