[Tonya Smith]

Hi Larry. This is Tania. Got a question to ask you. When I put...now from what Fred told me that I have to put in my $2 to become a member at large since I don't want to join any chapters. Is that right? Because I was gonna do that sometime after the new year and I wondering, do you guys accept debit cards? And give me the address again if you would please so I can rewrite it down or if there is like a 800 number I call, I can just program that into my phone and I can put in my $2 every year.
