  To All:
	My intent in differentiating between Sport Aerobatics readers and club 
members was as gentle and defusing as I could make it.  Even using Don 
Peterson's chapter attendance numbers, the magazine subscribers outnumber the 
active competitors by 10 to 1.  Furthermore, the club meeting attendees probably 
account for a large majority of the volunteers which we so very much need.  If 
one takes Don's 65-35 split for non-competitors vs competitors at his local 
meetings, he will find far fewer subscriptions than attendees since girlfriends, 
wives, friends, and other relatives frequently read the same magazine!  My 
comment has a significant probability of being on the mark.  Besides, I was only 
trying to point out, before it becomes an issue, how those on the board will 
frame the problem from an influence point of view before considering any action.
