[Rhodes22-list] Question for Captain Effros & Captain Crawford

[Michael Meltzer]

Well I like that :-) I think the flat rate might be a better model; 29.95
per member at 247 members are 7397.65, not bad but I do not think I could
give up my day job. -mjm 

On the other hand if that was monthly in 48 months I could get a real boat
:-)
