Rather than FORCE a collector to join the National, we should do all we can to make that collector WANT to join!!! Our yearly convention is ONE reason to join. Another reason would be a second, possibly smaller show that moves it's location around in between the "biggie". The exceptional club magazine is another example of why to join the club.

The 'police-ing' of forced membership will never work and would also leave a bad taste in prospective members mouths. I'm all for being 'inclusive' not exclusive and if the whole point is to make the organization grow, I strongly advise all to vote the amendment down........I have.
