I just got an information packet and membership application from the
Robotic Industries Association (RIA).  It would cost my employers $500 to
join.  Does anyone out there know anything about the RIA?  Do they offer
anything worth $500/year?  The information packet contains a lot of hype.
I'm trying to decide whether to buy it or trash it.

I've also got a packet from the Automated Imaging Association (AIA).  I'm
less interested in them, for now, but any information would be appreciated.

Thanks.
