I don't think Reid, et al, are that nefarious. Years ago, when Reid
was a principal--Membership Director, IIRC--at AHCUSA we had a promo
where we'd send a free copy of the mag to potential members. I did
the work for a couple years--it was kind of a PITA because I
packaged and mailed each hardcopy separately--and it was only an
attempt to expand our membership (I don't think it was particularly
successful).<br>
<br>
We always maintained it was advantageous for owners to be members of
both major clubs for, what, about $100/year (i.e. the cost of a
typical order to Tom's, Moss, etc.)?<br>
