Well uh....you make it sound like maybe J. Edgar Ashcroft would be stopping by...all I had in mind was a press release sort of thing...nothing like "official influence"...nevermind...

>Bob, thanks for posting the winning number from the Voter Incentive Program

>ABANA makes a very small donation of $100 / year to qth.net , the service

>and about 1,000 other non-profit e-mail lists.  The Forge has 359 members
>(as of Oct.1) but
>I am not sure of how many of them are from the 5000+ ABANA members. It would
>be interesting to find out.
>The ABANA web site www.abana.org had almost 6,000,000 (six million) hits
>last year. That is
>"THE" place to find official news about anything ABANA is doing.
>As far as ABANA posting news here, I don't think that we want any "official"
>ABANA influence
>on TheForge, do you? As far as I know, I am the only ABANA board member that
>subscribes
>to this list and I don't do it for that reason. I have been on TheForge
>since it's first week in existence.
>There is a life for me before and after ABANA. I find myself in the position

>newsletter editor,
>blacksmith, husband-father-grandpa, and not necessarily in that order. Sorry

>Did anyone from TheForge win? I sure hope so.
