Frank, you're a true optimist.  ;-)

Do you really think this hobby could survive such a drop in member-
ship, before it sank due to all the holes left?  If we were to lose
80 or 90%, it would be the true death knoll some of the doomsdayist
complain about.

Don't get me wrong... I'l likely be one of those few remaining...
