Re: New Life Member
The fees don't make much sense. A person in the over 61 year range has to live 10 years to break even on his membership at the current rate. On the other end of the range, if you want to argue someone should live to 75 or 80, how can the price for "under 31 be justified?Originally posted by Ken Craft View PostIt depends on your age.
Personally, I'm betting the CFC won't even be around the next time I want to play in an over the board rated event. :)Gary Ruben

Re: New Life Member
Napoleon is remembered for his defeat in Russia. He took a worse beating there than France took on the Plains of Abraham. Maybe that part I shouldn't mention, but that too is history.Originally posted by Hugh Siddeley View PostThat reminds me of the question: In what battle did Napoleon die?
Answer: His last one.
