| I doubt if they paid anything like 15 meg for the Muncie land.
$800K-1.5 meg, is the number that comes to mind, from numbers published
in MA over the past few years.
Land in that area simply isn't worth that much, but the Indiana
farmers (a group from which I sprang) probably made out pretty good
on the deal even at the lower price.
I've received an "offer" to renew for two years. No doubt this would
give the AMA a chunk of interest bearing cash all at once and make
it unecessary to deal with the administrative load during the '93
renewal period when they will be operating with mostly new office
staff. I'm sticking with one year renewal.
No doubt they will be losing much of their office staff. Not unusual
in that type of move. They'll be able to pick up new workers in
Muncie faster than you can plow a row of beans.
Haven't heard anything about the higher level staff quitting, but
wouldn't be surprising if they had to move to Muncie.
Strictly as a site, Muncie is as good as nearly any Nats site of
the past, and better than most, except for the chance of rain.

| I was wondering about my renewal too. $40 for one year, or $90 for
2 years? What gives? Pay an extra $10 to save having to pay again
next year?
I'm also rather disappointed to find out that my District VP bozo
(Jim Sears, District 6) is running unopposed. Every other district
has at least 2 candidates running. I think I will write in my own
name, rather than vote for him.

| Yea, and doesn't it also say "SAVE $10.00"?? Does that mean that they
expect the dues to go up to $60 for 1993??
Pretty big jump...

| You missed a point [worth missing].
You get for instead of
---------------------- -------- ----------
year 1 $40 same
year 2 $40 same
plastic ID card year 1 $10 same
plastic ID card year 2 no charge $10
--- ---
$90 $100
Frankly, I wouldn't pay a dime for the ID card unless I were an AMA
official. They act like it was a great thing.
Besides, you have to make out the application each year even if you
have paid in advance --- just to assure them that you will not sue the
AMA. Paranoid pinheads!
