Listers - I must now put my two cents in.
How much corporate sponsorship do you think Share gets? I would think most of their funding comes from the vendors. And the only reason the vendors provide sponsorship is so they can get at us. If everyone opted out of notification of vendor products - do you think Share would continue to get the funds they need so that they can put on the conferences for us? Or is everything free? The hotel, the conference rooms, the snacks between sessions, the handouts? Or our fees paid enough for all of that? I know how to use a delete key, or say "I am not interested at this time" or pitch something into the waste basket. I am okay with this so long as Share continues to provide the conference at the level it is at currently. Now, I am not on the board and I am not sure how or where the sponsorship funds go to. But it is something to consider. Just my opinion Lizette ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
