What ever happened to printing advertising iin the directory and
charging for it, she asked crankily? I know of at least one vendor that
wants to advertise in a chapter directory - I had to tell them last year
that it was no go. Back in the day, we used to pretty much pay for the
publication that way.
I'm not really cranky - just in need of lunch. But it's still a
question. :-)
