[DeTomaso] DeTomaso Digest, Vol 146, Issue 17

[Stephen]

Amen bro.  Honestly, don't want to be argumentative - just that folks have to understand that we are all not alike.   Just like our cars.

No paper = no membership renewal for me. Before the club eliminates paper copies all together, I suggest the membership be polled to see just what effect such an action has on the membership count. Why would someone subscribe to digital publications when they can just be forwarded from one member to another? I'm perfectly willing to pay a premium for printed material, but am not willing to pay squat for digital info.

I agree wholeheartedly!  But, if those of us who want the paper lose it, well, I will have just wasted my $75 when I re-upped with the shortt gone.

No flaming - but please - don't take my paper away!

BUT….

Has there been a poll to determine how many members really still want paper!!    I would say they are in the minority.

Our POCA membership database (if there is one) should reflect whether a member wants a paper copy of electronic copies.
Stop sending out paper products that end up in the trash can 1 day after they arrive.

Same Same for the newsletter.  Let the members who want paper get them, but don't waste printing and mailing to paper that just will collect dust in a closet and eventually get thrown out..

IMHO.   Feel free to flame me.   ;-)

What you are all missing is that Michael's number of $8,000 is incorrect. He failed to factor in the mailing costs of the profiles. With a true comparison the difference is pennies.

  Amen! That's not pocket change. It's significant and it works out about
  $10 per member. If it was a $1,000 difference, I'd say no big deal to
  keep everybody happy. It's just being thrown away right now.
