Like Pieter, I had hoped this thread had passed into history some time ago; but 
it has resurfaced and I wanted to address a misconception…

NASG, Inc., was organized as a 501(c)7 "Fraternal/Educational" non-profit 
organization.  As such, donations to NASG are NOT tax deductable on individual 
income tax returns.  That comes straight from the CPA who prepares and manages 
the corporate taxes for NASG, Inc.   A similar statement was posted on the NASG 
Members yahoo site, which the Board is working to re-invigorate.

My apologies for potentially prolonging this subject, I wanted to make sure the 
facts were clear.

Post Script on a different subject – closer to my heart…  I have been a big 
user of CDS dry transfers for over 20 years and have applied them to literally 
hundreds of cars.  I've never had a failure with the "newer" sets - those 
enclosed completely in a plastic sleeve.  The "older" sets, in plastic but 
stapled to a folded card, can sometimes be a problem.   I have had a few (less 
than 2%) that refused to "transfer" at all.  If you own a brass Milwaukee Road 
40' or 50' horizontal rib-side box car and you didn't apply the lettering 
yourself, I probably did!  I really enjoy using CDS Dry Transfers and can still 
generally get whatever I need from Jeff Wilson at Hoquat Hobbies.

Now, just "plain old" Jim K.
