sorry.. I'm posting from a library with time-limited 'net use. (...) anyway... after separating last spring, Todd handed the things over to me. It was then that I found out that all document/graphics files had been lost at some time in the past. In (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

I'll make a more official post later, but for now, to put the mystery to rest... When Todd and I began LUGNET, years ago, the member pack was a fun project done in our spare time as an 'extra' thing for our new friends as they joined up. It was a (...)

(...) The packets are more of a free bonus, really. Sort of a fun thing to get. And, I imagine, a lot of work to generate. (there's printing the stickers, printing the envelope labels, stuffing the envelopes etc. etc.) I expect there probably are (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

Dan, My membership has been active since last January. That's where this whole mini-rant started. Like I said earlier in this thread, if you need another pair of hands to send emails, I could help. I spend the daytime at home with my little boy and (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

I agree, Scott. If we aren't going to get membership packs, someone should say so. I would think that whatever information is there could be morphed into a web page that could be accessed by members and not lurkers. I would like a password, though, (...)

If it has not been done already, it sounds like a note needs to be put on the membership form saying that membership packs may be delayed (or may never come). As for those who are waiting for packs right now I think they need to be updated. I expect (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

Tanya, thanks for bringing this up again. I posted almost the exact same queston nearly a month ago and am still awaiting a response. My guess would be that the packets were made for the first 500 people and the rest of us just get to grin and bear (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
