Think of us guilt trippers as NPR fundraising reps.
If we don't ask... most might not give.
BTW, I attended 11 of 12 show (sick last year), My wife never attends (she just rolls her eyes)
But I choose to attend meeting, use my personal gear, use what little cash I have, to be involved. Because I want to!!!
If you don't want, don't.
But PLEASE don't complain because we ask. As required. We aren't rich either.
If every body came, we could just announce.
See snowball chances...
