Re: [AGA-sc] [Fwd: Re: Member Directory volunteer]



Welllllll....sort of.

When somebody pays for something, they get directed to a return page 
where if they choose, they can fill out a questionnaire. When they hit 
submit, I get the results in an e-mail.

So I have saved these e-mails.

We could make a separate list, or maybe the AGA database could be 
modified to accept this information. I dunno.

What I would REALLY like is NOT to be personally involved in data entry. 
Surely we could find a volunteer for this.
