Y ask Y: For the record, USATF Masters Track & Field receives a razor thin budget of $30,000 from USATF -- out of USATF's total annual budget of about $2.7 million. And this despite the fact at least half the dues-paying members of USATF are of masters age (mainly road runners). I'm all in favor of USATF cutting us loose -- along with all our dues-paying members. Ken Stone http://www.masterstrack.com
