FYI, while some members of the board were evaluating a "feeler proposal" 
to give someone a life AGA membership in exchange for..um...I dunno, say, 
full legal control over their former magazine or something, it was brought 
up that we don't *have* any sort of official "life membership" categories, 
just a handful of indefinite memberships for some workers and contacts.

So it was voted to officially make Neil and Dorothy life members.  Neil 
and Dorothy are the two surviving founders of the AGA in its current 
incarnation, and Dorothy was involved in the AAGA in its inception before 
that!  Dorothy has some things to say about this below (Mike... some 
history for you!).

    Thank you all for the honour you have given me. It is much appreciated.
I'm more thrilled that you are giving it to Neil as he deserves it far more
than me. He put TAG together, had it printed and applied the labels and
mailed each issue. This was on top of working full time, with a family and
related duties. I don't know how he really got it all in and still turned
out a great product.
    I hand wrote all the memberships to start with until I was able to get
them on disk. I took the disk to my son who printed all the labels for me. I
then drove them 67 miles over the border to mail them to Neil as this cut
off two days. I also mailed the cheques, etc. to Jare. This was all done on
the telephone as e-mail was limited then.
    Again, than Thank You all for enjoyable years. I'm looking forward to
getting to the conventions now.  I will be trying to get more Canadian
memberships all the upcoming shows and auctions. (6 in the coming 8 weeks)
and I will also be at the CAOAC convention.

Dorothy
