Hi Jim,

It was great to finally meet you at the convention! I hope all is well with you and yours.

I personally would be against raising dues to purchase manufacturers records. My reasons? I specialize in a gaming jurisdiction that hasn't yet celebrated it's 10th anniversary of legal gaming (Colorado). Most of the records that might become available, or already are available, would ID illegals or older chips from NV and CA. While I agree that the information is very important to the hobby in general, it would have no direct benefit to club members like myself.

I would support a dues increase to give the club a permanent home by purchasing and maintaining a building.

Bob
