A lot of folks would drive cross town to buy gas at the station that charges 
a couple cents less per gallon of gas, rather than go down to their corner 
station. 

Every dollar we could save the members, is well worth saving. 

Tom, as you know, I have mentioned this to the board a couple times, in a 
couple different formats, so now may be the time to mention it to the general 
membership: 

I started an experiment in D3 contests, by requesting a 5$ rebate on contest 
entry fees to all NSRCA members.  Non-NSRCA members pay full price. 

So far, it seems like it has worked in about one out of three contests.  
Basically it requires buy-in by the CD's, therefore I urge the CD's to 
consider this simple way of managing your contests. In D3, I am hoping for  
more CD participation in 2003, as the word spreads.
