That is my old address. Anything mailed has to be forwarded to me at my new
address if the post office catches it, hopefully.

Guys, when the smoke clears, let me know what the address should be to 
mail membership forms to, and I will update the website accordingly. 
Right now it is listed as:

Susan Welenofsky
13510 Northcreek Drive, # E405
Mill Creek, WA 98012

in this file: http://www.gsas.org/member.html

Likewise, I'd be happy to do a runthrough of the database functions at a 
board meeting.
