Is this a threat ?   It is fine to voice criticism in a direct manor =
like Mike and Rick have,  but this type of immature sarcasm hardly seems =
warranted or constructive.  Perhaps you should just take your marbles =
(check) and go home if you don't like the rules.  As you say you have =
places to go that are a heck of a lot more fun.

  Let's see if I understand this correctly:  MOU-net is for posting only =
rare or unusual sightings, and MnBird is for posting "everyday" =
sightings.  Is this the way that it is? =20

  My MOU membership is up for renewal.   I'd like to renew, as MOU funds =
some important projects. However, I'm beginning to wonder if I am =
sophisticated enough in my birding skills and interests to belong to =
such a technical organization.  What type of an individual does the MOU =
want as a member?  Must I be a scientist?  Am I welcome to participate =
by posting my sightings, or does the MOU want me to keep my unremarkable =
observations to myself and just send them a check?

  The MnBird list seems to be more useful, practical, and a heck of a =
lot more fun!=20

  Peace
