<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What we need, and I first tried to get when a
District VP in '99, is the actual <STRONG>participation</STRONG>
information from AMA. If we had that databaae, annually dumped as a single
csv, there are those around (me, for one) who could do data comparisons to
determine some answers...How many actual individuals play? What
classes? How many contests per player? Compare querying against
NSRCA databases would give the REAL "percent of participants who are NSRCA
members", and then by class.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Which also could be information
mined for recruiting, feedback, direction, and of course, RULE
MAKING.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In '99, the AMA IT guy told me "we (AMA)
can't get it out of the computers".... maybe 5 years is enough time to make it
possible? Officer elects/candidates - you have at least ONE volunteer to
do the database crunching if you can get it. I'd bet there are others,
too.</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV>

Steve,<BR>> If
the current member number is, say 600 plus, how many do you <BR>>
think are on the discussion list? I heard about 200. If that is right
<BR>> then we need to design a system that reaches more than just this
e-mail <BR>> list.<BR>><BR>> Just thinking out loud,<BR>><BR>>
