That's a very good point Dalia!  All we need to do is outnumber those
"flatties"!  Let's all make an effort to make it to PSA-Chicago!!!

I agree with your comments and I hope that your prediction comes reality. 

One problem that I have with PSA is that it appears that most members are
OLD.  I have nothing against old experienced people.  The only problem is
that they are not open to new possibilities, like using a halogen bulb in
their viewers!  NSA on the other hand has managed to attract young blood,
which is good... I hope that some of this young blood takes interest in
photography per se and joins PSA too.  Young people are needed to join the
stereo clubs.  Young people are good for the future of stereo photography. 

And, as you know, young people (under 50?) with good paying jobs can be
some of your best customers!

George (under 50)
