Please add my name to the list. HOWEVER, before anyone writes any checks,
we'll need to find out how much the dues are. I seem to recall a post from
Tony L a few months back saying that the dues for overseas members were going
up by about four pounds. Aren't we about due for another 'Horn' ?

P.S. FYI - the best deal on int'l bank drafts I've found locally was at a
currency exchange office of Thomas Cooke(sp?). About $8 per check as of last
year. I'd imagine they have outlets in larger metro areas around the U.S..
P.P.S. It might not mean much to people heavily involved with computers, but
I'm still amazed that the Horn's editor can crank the rag out every two
months while on long-term work assignment in the Dominican Republic.
