Depends on how many more members it brought in. Also, do we have vendors waiting to advertize but we just don't have room for them? If so, that would offset costs too. If it was just a grand and putting in 4 pages; no problem we could afford that. The who shlemeil is bigger, much harder to back away from and requires a closer look, like prices quotes. > In fact, if we simply add another sheet of paper (4 > pages) for now, > (something I'd dearly like to do) I'm NOT going to add > more text content, > but ask Cheryl to loosen things up a bit to allow the > photos to be printed > at a larger size. I think we could do that without breaking a sweat. So the question, in my mind, is how much do we want to sweat. Something has to get over the 800 wall! And I don't mind sweating, uh, spending money to get there. But if it doesn't pay off, if it turns us into the red, it could be hard to back away.
