Re: RES: [PSUBS-MAILIST] OT: Copyrights/BOD

I'm all for having the Busby for a DL off of a website.  I say that if a
person wants one, they pay $150.  But if the person is a member, they
get it for $45.  Numbers are just for the example provided.  I think
that way it could eventually benefit our group.  More member, paying
more membership fee, and non-members end up contributing anyhow.  

Sadly I know that will make membership more than even I can afford.  But
I don't see how it would be any benefit otherwise.

But if Psubs sees some advantage to becoming the Navy's source for Busbys (the get 6-10 requests a year from the public), I will be glad to contact them again and see if they are still interested.
