Jim, Bob, Scott, et al; This has been a very perplexing problem that the club has been experiencing for years.... under several administrations and printer's mailing houses we have been using. I don't have a solution to the problem either. John Benedict I recall was sending his copy of the club magazine to Bob and it was arriving in relatively short time. I know that Bob took offense at one time to one of my comments regarding the problem. As you can see by Bob's posts, the problem is still with us, which I hope lessens the impact of my comments I made to Bob a couple of years ago. The club mails these things out to all of the members. Once it gets into the postal systems around the world.... who knows what happens? It's unfortunate, and I understand the concern from our members outside the U.S. I would want comparable service for my dues payment as well. Any constructive suggestions from the other side of the pond?
