I let my membership lapse rather than put up with the array of junk mail that came with it. I exchanged several letters with Mr Herz (I think that's correct-it has been a while) and he sounded as if he wanted to help, but I still got bingo cards, insurance ads, and scads of other dreck. I think part of the problem is the Institute's cart before the horse approach. FIRST they get your name and address, and only later do they give you chance to request it NOT be peddled out, while brazenly demanding even more information about you to up the ad revenues. Of course, in the meantime... -- wb8foz@mthvax.miami.edu David Lesher impersonal zip code: 33157-0335
