Being a member of RN sometime during the year of 1998, IMO (toss humility) is
all that is required. Sure, -I- will be upset if an upswelling of people join
only because they've heard of the shirts, think it's cool to be a groupie,
join, order, receive, then drop.
-BUT-
That is thier choice/decision, and I think that anyone who is sincere about
joining the list will remain and enjoy and sure, will want a shirt somewhere
along the way (hence a secret I've been keeping about these shirts that I'll
let out now).
The shirt orders have a benefit that a lot of you may not be aware of doing
the method that I am pursuing for us.
It leaves us OPEN with the option of having more shirts printed at a later
date, hence, IF someone wishes to buy a shirt later on in the year, they may.
This way it opens the door for Christmas gifts and the like to ourselves
(hence my comment about "gifts" in that other posting). This way also, if
someone likes them, but only ordered one, they have the chance to get more at
a later time when they may have more money.
folks, please, I am requesting that all comments concerning the
List Titles, Authorities, "Elitist Names", etc...be dropped. I -do- like the
idea of a single asterisk next to the List Admin (Adam, if he gets one), List
Patron (Mark, if he does), and List Archivist (Dvixen), and -perhaps- the list
Gridsec (you know who you are ;).
I -do- agree with Roun, the rest of it is unnecessary.
