>>  Hello Robert,
>>
>>  Unfortunately, in the 11 years since AAVL was established, historical
>> memory has declined.  That has happened because we have lost many of the
>> founding members.  As the founding president, I am and have been for a
>> number of years, a life member.  I believe that our former newsletter
>> editor
>> was also a life  member.  Jeanne Sanders from Florida also a life member.
>>
>>  Are you collaborating with any of the AAVL board members?  The only
>> founding  member left are those I mentioned, Charlie Crawford and myself.
>> It saddens me that so many wonderful members have passed but also the
>> historical memory seems to have died with them.  We who are life members
>> paid $200.00 to ensure that status when Al Gayzagian was our treasurer 
>> and
>> provided us with such reliable records.
>>
>>  I think that if there is no historical commitment, this effort for
>> reconnection, as sincere as it may be, is obviously useless.  There are
>> too
>> many lists for current issues and AAVL has lost its past.  Thanks for
>> trying, Robert.

>> Dear listers,
>>
>> Do any of you know of any others who have been a member AAVl in the
>> past or may want to become members now.  There is always a problem with
>> people not being sure their dues being paid up.  I keep getting hits on
>> this
>> list by people wanting to be subscribed to it.  They are not on my

>> limited listing of members so I cannot oblige because the list is only 
>> for
>> paid up members of AAVL.  To my knowledge, AAVL has no lifetime
>> memberships
>> and "Life" member of ACB still leaves annual membership dues a
>> requirement.
>> Membership on this list depends upon current membership.
>>
>> When I started this list, I believed that it might promote
>> communication among AAVL membership, either chit-chat type or AAVL
>> business
>> type.
>>
>> QUESTIONS:  Do you want the list to continue?
>>
>> Do any of you want to find other members to be subscribed?  Only I
>> can finalize that.
>>
>> Best wishes for upcoming holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter,
>> oh and yes, the biggy of Halloween.  smiles.
