<DIV>And the great ideas keep pouring in. I like this one... low
tech.. low budget. Seems the K-Factor is just about going to have to be
mailed as well as be available through the NSRCA website.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sorry Matt, I am illiterate to the ways of manufacturing that kind of a
process and the costs. Just my opinion and I am sure that as the ideas
flow in that it may change.</DIV>

<DIV>Why not have the ballots in the KFactor? Every magazine has these little
thingies somewhere in the pages, why not the KF? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The problem is getting the totals. It seems that you folks just went
through a bunch of expense becauase you didn't trust the secretatyr to do
an accurate count, so that expense will continue in the future. </DIV>
