How about an explanation of this to the membership?  It seems a disservice 
has been done to some talented hard working individuals.  Does anyone in the 
leadership want to explain why we are paying for something for which 
volunteers are available?

Are we supposed to beg Congress for more money and watch the organization 
waste it?

Long live the spirit of volunteerism!  I will always suspect the motives of a 
paid bureaucracy.

Happy trails,
