Dilwyn made the point that Quanta membership was based on a
subscription to the magazine.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The subscription is for
membership to Quanta, period.
Hmm, I must be mixing this up with another organisation. The
sentence "membership is by subscription to the newsletter" is quite
stuck in my mind. John is right, there is no mention of this in the
constitution. Unless it was back in the eearly days, or one of the
other groups (BBC micro, Oric etc) I was a member of back in the
1980s. I had a quick look at adverts of Quanta c. 1988 and no
mention there either. WWonder where I got that from then?
When I joined Quanta years ago it was to receive magazine. When the
magazine degenerated I no longer renewed! Being a hemisphere away
Quanta was never more than a magazine to me. I have probably got
more from this list than I ever got from Quanta.

Maybe it was like that some time ago and I'm thinking of a quote
rather than advert or past constitution entry.
Either way, I didn't mean to start Quanta-bashing again!
