Personally, I think the obsessing over the prompt delivery is a waste of
effort.
Does anyone complain when the April issue of something is delivered in late
February? It's all BS, anyway. If the AOS said that the current issue was
for February, nobody would have said a word.

All,
This is my last year of AOS membership. I renewed this past fall mostly so
that I could have a leg to stand on to complain. I've given up on even
that - there's a sense that no one will listen - they do too much navel
gazing down in Florida.
The magazine has consistently been on a level way below what I am
interested
in, and I've had it arrive before the 5th of the month less than 5 times
in
the 3 years I have been a member.
The magazine may look good, but they have no excuse for not getting it out
in a timely fashion, since the magazine staff is PAID, unlike Orchid
Digest,
which is entirely volunteer run. I've said it before - any other magazine
in
the USA with a paid professional staff would have fired the staff if the
magazine was as consistently late as Orchids is.
My $40 will go as a donation towards OrchidDigest's year-end issue for
2004
this year.

Just in case some of you are wondering where your January issue of
Orchids
is, they were all mailed on the 9th of Jan. Yours should arrive soon,
mine
too I hope.
