Perhaps you also noticed on page 622 of Orchids : "Financial restraints have resulted in ... the elimination of the off-site, part-time position of director of conservation" Mike Perhaps it is time for those of us who are concerned to call or email our AOS reps who will be attending the meeting in Denver, to make sure they know of our concerns, and will represent US at the meeting. We have the names of the current trustees and officers, and of those who will be rubber-stamp elected soon. They won't know our concerns unless we let them know. I wonder what cut-backs have been made at Headquarters? Li'l Frog
