You make a few points above and I agree with all of them so I've joined, donated and waited. While they do seem to be legal experts, which is thier main goal, they seem to be dults when it comes to other things.

The hired someone to create that news letter and the news letter had adult ads on the back page. That was just plain stupid and I would much prefer an electronic news letter. That wasn't a lawyer that did that but someone that should be smarter.

The business is run by lawyers and I din't expect them to be focusing on other issues. Doctors and lawyers are often the worst when it comes to learning or understanding anything that isn't billable.

They are fighting the legal battle and seem quite capable in that arena and I don't really like people bitching about without donating to the cause. You don't have to join but you can donate.

They're moving into a new area and they need to focus on lobbying, creating a standard message and bringing people together. They need to do a better job at many things if they are going to be a strong industry voice in the future and that's not bitching, that's a fact.
