At the risk of seeming silly, what sort of thing can an ordinary  
member do to help 'NOW'?  I take it as read that we should encourage  
members to:

- - become financial, and
- - volunteer for the board

What else can an ordinary member do?

(On being financial:  At the current rate, I decided to give AUUG the  
benefit of the doubt for the remaining year, in whatever form it  
might go on to take.  I can appreciate that others might not have  
sufficient disposable income or sufficient doubt.  Maybe 'encourage'  
is too strong a word.)


warm regards

David Vincent
