Voting

[Rich Littleton]

I concur with Joe's observation.  That points to another advantage of
combining the membership renewal drive with the mailed-out ballots.

About recycling computers, that is a great idea, and even greater because
the recent generation of "used" computers are more and more on this side
of the Windows 95 shift and can handle the space guzzling new software.

Sharma was working on that before.  Is recycling of computers a current
activity?  That might be a great volunteer magnet, as it is hands-on and a
clear benefit to the targetted users.
