Jerry,

I think you need to read what I posted one more time. No where in it does it say that my wife should receive anything or be entitled to anything, whether it be a handout or potato chip with onion dip on it, but entrance to the meeting, regardless of how my membership was paid for. That is why I purposely wrote "perks of membership" as far as the handouts go. If your not going to let interested, non-members in, why bother having a meeting? Is it to ask questions? Find out who the speaker would have been and email them your questions and save everybody the trouble of pulling themselves away from the strike machines. Is it for the FREE strike? I just bought the Palms handout from 2 years ago for $20. Contrarily, it cost me $140 in gas to get to Vegas and back, so I can stay home and save some money. Is it for the topics? Anything of any importance will be on this message board by Monday or in the next news letter. Plus, there's no guarantee at this point there will even BE a handout, so as of today, at 3:18 p.m. pacific time, all this point-counterpoint drabble is pointless.

Is there someone out there out there on the organizing committee that can answer definitively whether non-members will be allowed into the conference? This is a forum, not Augusta National.
