 -> FIG does not have either the manpower or money to investigate each of
 -> its chapters.  A chapter is a member based orginization and it is up
 -> to its members to keep FIG informed of changes in its status. When
 -> they do, we try our best to make the changes in Forth Dimensions as
 -> soon as possible.  We do this as a service to the local chapters, to
 -> promote their activities.  If they do not care to take advantage of
 -> this service, it is their loss.

         This is a concise statement of what is wrong with the current
 attitude at FIG.

         For years, for years, Dennis, I have repeatedly pointed out
 to you, John Hall, Will Baden and others that the UNITED STATES
 CHESS FEDERATION is a member-based organization and IT KNOWS WHAT
 ITS MEMBERS ARE DOING.

         FIG doesn't know what the members are doing only because
 FIG has its head up where the sun doesn't shine.
