If members start leaving and stating why, at some point they are going 
to have to come to their senses. If they don't then they are pretty 
stupid and they are not doing us any good.

I know a lot of long time members that have quit the ARRL and have 
stated that they would come back if the organization was more democratic 
and open.

I am a member and so is my son, but frankly we are getting fed up with 
they behind closed door policy making.
