George certainly makes good sense. After all, we vote on our political leaders (?) every two to four years.

It is understood that with fewer printed copies, the cost per copy will increase and those asking for hardcopies will pay a higher rate than when the publications were printed for everyone. I won't be able to make the next TSA meeting, but hope this dual membership rate is voted on. Digital members should not have to subsidize hardcopy members, and hardcopy members should not have to do without a product that is important to them and relatively simple for the organization to produce.

It was decided to offer both. Libraries in particular (including the TSS) don't like digital publications. And bibliophiles like myself and Mixon definitely prefer old-fashioned hard copy, and I don't mean cheap, single-sided inkjet copies that fade over time and bleed if they get damp. -- Jim -----Original Message----- From: Charles Goldsmith [mailto:wo...@justfamily.org] Sent: Friday, December 11, 2009 2:51 PM To: Pete Lindsley Cc: TexasCavers; Stefan Creaser Subject: Re: [Texascavers] Please Become a Digital Online Member of the TSA and Save My Sanity - DANGER!
