Allan,

Thank you for all of the hard work you put into making the CCTN such a consistently excellent publication. Like others, I keep my copies and refer to them often. Count me among those who love the magazine just the way it is.

As far as the dues increase goes, I have no problem with it. I'm eligible for life membership but have elected to forgo it for the time being. I have no problem with paying $.08 per day to belong to such a fine organization.

I commend our board of directors for their selfless contributions to the club and would encourage those who are dissatisfied with how things have been done to get involved and run for office.

Of course it's a lot easier to be an armchair quarterback and criticize every play without ever setting foot on the field.
