<DIV><STRONG><FONT face="Lucida Sans Unicode" color=#008080
size=2> Yes it is... WHY? Just because I have one
doesn't mean that everyone does and many that have puters don't get on the
list or will only read and never bother to post. Do those people not
count? I'm one that is concerned for those that don't
participate on this list. If we were to assume all NSRCA members belonged to
the list then how come only a few ever post or contribute their thoughts? I
would venture they may be uncomfortable with the medium and stay in the
shadows. Should we assume what they wishes and expectations follow with the
leaders when that isn't the case on different past issues that have steered
the NSRCA? </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face="Lucida Sans Unicode" color=#008080

keep jacking my price with not any alternatives except satellite. I guess I
could give up a couple of contests a year to stay on broadband? Does that
sound prudent?</FONT></STRONG></DIV>

official side of the NSRCA have the modern and fast capability not all
that would like to join or are new to pattern have the resources or
luxury of these conveyances. I believe they assume everyone has one
strapped to themselves or access to them at work also. Ain't so by a
long shot. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
