Jim; I would also like to point out that MANY club members are professional people who ARE on-line, but who simply do not have the time to delve into matters they consider to be not of a high priority. Ditto for many (not all) on-line home-makers and single parents raising families (men and women) ... or those who do not wish to involve themselves in political decision making, such as voting ... not only in club elections, but National elections as well.
