Before I get folks upset for not contributing, here's what happened last year. Will follow this with a question.
Sent in a check on December 9, 2007 for $25. Nothing happened in December and nothing in January - I wqas still listed as a member. Did a couple of contacts asking for help to get this straightened out. Finally, on February, 12, 2008 I was listed as a contributor. I thought status lasted for a year. If I'm wrong, please explain the time lines to me so I'll know going forward.
I do believe in contributing and do appreciate the help from experienced woodworkers. My intention is to contribute in 2009. I would like to know how frequently contributions are needed.
