Don't do that - this is after all a PUBLIC forum! Some things should be kept IN the closetI was just pulling one of your appendages......

The percentage of NANFA members on this forum has now fallen below 19%. I take that as a good sign, we're drawing other people to the site and the organization and its work.
NEXT: a workshop on how to take reasonably clear fish photos for ID questions? You never know!

Should have made it to the convention! You missed a good workshop.

Someone may be able to talk him into marketing his sweet photo tank setups.

Maybe this isn't the right place to ask this, but I think I first heard of Nanfa in the pages of In-Fisherman magazine. There was an article about keeping gamefish in aquariums. It launched my interest in keeping native fish. Just wondering if anyone else caught that article. I'm talking mid 1990's... I think

The good news is that we have 814 members. The bad news is we have about 346 NANFA members who don't use the forum.
They do get American Currents. Maybe a future page in the publication could be about the forum to raise awareness among our own ranks.

Martin, I just quickly thumbed through AC. If I were a NANFA member whose primary info came from AC, I would not know of the forum. I see nothing there that pops out at me advertising this venue. Some members pay their dues just to get AC, and likely rarely visit the website, or the forum. Look through yours, and tell me that I am crazy.
I just received my issue today! It's hard to fit any more info in this issue to be honest. 40 pages of hard work. Thanks Chris

Thats what I was thinking, there are just some people who do not like computers.Well, this latest issue was something of an exception, but generally there is not only a blurb about how to join the mailing list and the forum, but there are also numerous mentions in Riffles and NANFA News. A lot of our members subscribe solely to get A/C, and they have been members for a long time. They simply choose not to participate in electonic dialog.

What I'd need for a follow up for them is some sort of a different take on the same subject. Nothing is occuring to me right now.
Bob, I have heard a number of people refer to that article as what drew their attention to NANFA. It ocurrs to me that we're publishing in all the wrong places these days. TFH, AFM, FAMA - that's nice, but maybe it's time for you to do another one for In-Fisherman?
