SETIzens,
Thanks for your participation on the SETI Public email discussion
list. We in The SETI League appreciate your interest in the scientific
search for intellegent life in the universe.
This list is hosted by The SETI League, Inc., and is open to the general
public. About half of you are members of the international, grass-roots,
nonprofit SETI League, and we appreciate your support (although I hasten to
add that membership is NOT a prerequisite to participating in the dialogs
on this forum). Consider this my every-now-and-then invitation to the rest
of you, to take the next step and become a member of The SETI League.
Our membership currently stands at roughly 1380 people from all walks of
life, residing in 63 countries and all 50 of the US States. Since
membership dues constitute 17% of our budget, we cannot ignore the
importance of your financial support. But we like to give value for
funding received! Here, in no particular order, is a list of the top 14
SETI League membership benefits:
1. Obtain your own personal subscription to SearchLites, our quarterly
newsletter.
2. Secure discounts on SETI League equipment and publications.
3. Link your personal website from our Members' Pages webpage.
4. Display the registered SETI League logo on your website and personal
correspondence.
5. Participate in the various closed SETI League email discussion lists.
6. Download Members Only freeware and shareware signal analysis software.
7. Attend SETI League Regional and Annual membership meetings.
8. Discounted registration to SETI League Technical Symposia.
9. See your name and address listed in the annual Membership Roster.
10. Enjoy personal contact with your local volunteer Regional Coordinator.
11. Serve on a SETI League Committee, or even as a Committee Chair.
12. Register your station as an official Project Argus participant.
13. Receive personal technical assistance from your fellow members.
14. Gain access to the password-protected "Members Only" section of
The SETI League webiste.
15. Claim your fair share of the credit when The Call comes in.
I invite you to browse The SETI League's extensive website at
<http://www.setileague.org/>, for thousands of documents, totaling hundreds
of MBytes (!) of technical and membership information. If you wish to join
us, you may obtain a membership application from our website or, if you
prefer, simply email your *postal* address to <join@setileague.org> and a
brochure and application form will be mailed to you.
Any students out there should note that our Scholarship Member category
offers you full membership privileges at half the normal dues. We hope by
doing this that we are encouraging the participation of our next generation
of SETIzens.
My thanks to those of you who are supporting our efforts. I hope the rest
of you will consider joining us. And in any case, please keep
participating in this open forum -- we value your ideas.
Yours for SETI Success,
Paul
