I received an APDAlog with my information kit.  It is very useful.

I called that number to ask them to send me an information packet.  Within
two days, it showed up in the mail.  So I filled out the membership form
and sent it back in.  I haven't heard back from them in the last three weeks.
I'll give them a couple more, but I really would like to get my membership
stuff back so I can place an order.

I am confident that they will eventually get things together.  Luckily I am
a patient person.
