<VV> manditory multiple membership

[tkalp at cox.net]

Boy we need to get all this "freeloading" stopped.  No one has even 
discussed all those CORSA members that belong to several chapters and 
only pay CORSA dues once.  I'll bet that if we got all these double, 
tripple, and more dippers to pay a CORSA membership for each chapter the 
CORSA deficit would dissapear.  It wouldn't suprize me if most if not 
all the members of the Stock Corvair Group are at least double dippers.
