I think $16 is fair... and hopefully dave will eventually view "AGA news"
as content-related material

 Talking with Kathy, she confirmed my

I agree that $20 is the right number,.. even with $16 to Dave. There is
also no way that we can expect our members to jump $10 overnight, even
though we have never had a dues hike.

How does our foreign rate compare to his.  And what about his rate for
Canadians. Will he take the $16 (or whatever) for them too?

I never realized that AGA might get new members. I guess if the AGA "dues"
= PAM subscription rate, then it only makes sense to automatically make
them members.
