As I said, It's just a thought. I agree that we should put it on the agenda for the next board meeting and leave it at that for now. Figure 20 minutes on the docket??

Remember, they are $15/year. What about committees? I'd expect Public Events should be third highest in priority (first and second would be treasurer and president). The letterhead currently has 10 people. I doubt we can spend $150/year on this. I personally suggest just having the three I've just mentioned. To preempt the suggestion of using saguaroastro.org, pobox.com provides a lot more flexibility. My permanentmail.com address has had the destination mailbox on 6 differnent hosts, including saguarastro.org at one time. All adjustable by me. We could get by by just using saguaroastro.org and just having a POP3 mailbox. The passwords would have to handed over (or changed) for each officer change (more work for Bob Erdmann) and it would be difficult to overlap usage of a mailbox during a transition (an incoming officer downloads and deletes a message that's part of a discussion with the outgoing officer. This could cause some confusion, if not problems). But it could be done. -Paul
