Mike,Since you responded with such candor maybe this is an issue that should be discussed by the NFBW Board of Directors at the upcoming convention.  Havining online registration would make it easier for people to registor and may encourage more people to do so and come to the convention.  It was just an idea I wanted to see what people thought.  I understand these things take time and there is always finantial matters that need to be worked out.  I hope the Board will take this up for consideration at the convention.       Thanks, Doug

Dr. Maurer and our financial team caution against use of PayPal although they can assist us if we wish to try it. We could try an iPhone app and card reader but there would be some accounting problems in that the affiliate doesn't have an iPhone! I will not approve use of a personal iPhone for this purpose.
