[DeTomaso] State of POCA address

[Joseph F. Byrd, Jr.]

As a new member, I don't understand what is going on.  Maybe If I knew the
purpose of POCA it might help.  I read the bylaws below, but they are vague
and there is no statement of how each will be performed.
My first year membership will soon expire and the only reason I can see to
renew is to try and follow what I "walked into"

Now I do have a true desire to stay in communications with the owners I have
met through the email list and PI.  I greatly appreciate all that I have
learned from you all and hope to continue doing so.
