It is an idea, but I don't like having members with more money getting special treatment. That used to be the way they ran some things, even a chain to keep the board members private seats at the national. They threw out non board members from the section. I was the first person to object to that and took a lot of flack from some board members. Now they are treated the same as us little people. Let's not go backwards. Evan L.
