I respond:

    Dr. T implies that because we don't have elected officers that we
    are disorganized and therefore can't be a club and that the people
    who come to our meetings aren't members.  We have fixed meeting
    dates, a computerized mailing list, and a bank account.  How much
    more organized do we need to be?  We were organized enough to have
    a table at a three day camera show that attracts 20,000 attendees.
    We had to staff the table for 12 hours on a Friday, 10 hours on Saturday
    and 8 hours on Sunday.  We had two, three or four people at the table
    for all of those 30 show hours, and we had a display of stereo cameras,
    viewers, slides and prints.
