OK! Well, here is a riddle for you then. When I became eligible for LM I assumed so did Chris, an A member. I was told that because the A member did not pay the same amount of dues as a regular member did, that the A member's 3 years did not qualify for LM. I was told that I could rectify this by paying the difference btween A membership and the regular membership for those 3 years and then Chris could be an LM too! That's what I did but that's not what you are saying! NO BIG DEAL!
