<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tom I am not getting into the bylaws thing but I
must say as a member I did not receive that many K-Factors this year I can not
believe that only Aug was missed this year. I quit advertising in the
K-Factor because we were not getting any and yes my dues were paid before you
ask Tom. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>:-) I have checked the NSRCA web site
most of the year and I am sure that I did not miss any that was on the site
maybe I did I only see Feb, March, and Nov on the web site am I or did I miss
the other ones that you are talking about if so can you email me the
PDF copy.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=570120622-02122002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>All
the members were sent a K-Factor for January, February, March, April, May,
June, July, Sept/Oct and November, 2002. If you didn't get one please call
Maureen Dunphy. The March K-Factor had the survey for the proposed by-laws. By
the way, these by-laws were a continuation of the work started by Troy Newman
and his team. A few mods were made based on the survey vote, and
then the By-Laws were written in the final form and published. Every change
was voted upon by the membership. The District limits were not in the
old By-Laws and not in the new, either. The boundaries for District 2
were changed this summer at the officer's meeting when Maryland was moved from
D1 to D2. That also was published. The District boundaries have always been
set by the NSRCA BOD, and can change as requested by the membership. There is
no need to fix the boundaries by inserting them in the By-Laws. The NSRCA BOD
voted not to align the NSRCA Districts to the AMA Districts. That also was in
the K-Factor. Maureen published it in her column.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tom ,thanks for the answer, but::</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What March K Factor--just now got first one
this year, except for the handout at the NATS, and it did not mention
this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With my phone line the best I can
ever do is 14.2, so therefore I do not download anything</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What K Factor month was the
tally displayed to the Membership?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The fact that there was nothing in
them before that defined how the Districts were established, and
structured, does not make the omission in the new ones
correct.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What in the old ones (Bylaws) authorized
establishing the Districts as were previously set. I have heard a lot of
discussion in the past about changing the Districts to match AMA, but there
were always excuses/no rationale for not doing anything.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>By the new Bylaws, omissions are kicked
back to what AMA has--is this a new change? If not, we have not
been operating to the Bylaws in the past.Why not?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I joined after 1990--so have no record--I
wonder who knows they are there.</FONT></DIV>
