Yes. As the person who initiated meetings leading to the founding of ARSC, we were trying to find out who had what and get these various collectors and collections talking to one another. ARSC has become a group I probably never dreamed could do the things that are being done for preservation, for working with LC and other organizations, with grants for research, and copyright issues; *awesome.* But to get into "behavioral issues" was never the purpose or the bailiwick of this organization other than copyright issues. Working with people of any ideology other than my own would not keep me from my tasks and work with ARSC members. I now work as editor of two publications of our large writers organization. The only things I reject are 'straight political,' unless it is part of a larger story, and 'rants.' I agree with Kurt. ARSC should not be concerned with 'diversity' given we have that in all the recordings we are hoping to preserve. Find collectors and invite them in! Paul Jackson *Trescott Research - Paul T.
