[JONAT] CAA /AAA

It was my intention to negotiate a really low blanket group fee with AAA/CAA
for everyone officially participating in the tour.  My definition of
"officially participating" was that those covered had paid the participation
fee for whatever sector(s) they were driving.

It was my hope that, in order to promote their services, AAA/CAA would offer
the coverage at a nominally low or (hopefully) nonexistent fee. As an
example, I am currently paying AAA Colorado US$87 per year for their premium
service.  This works out to $1.67 per week, which we should be able to
absorb into the sector participation fee.
