Re: STC or STC# ?

[Bruce Byfield <bbyfield -at- axionet -dot- com>]

Since I stopped being involved with the STC three years ago:

- my income has increased 135%
- I'm working with industry leaders on technology so new that the
cutting edge looks primitive beside it
- I do strategic planning as well as tech writing
- I'm paid to travel and my wife often comes with me
- on the side, I'm paid to give my opinion to over 100,000 readers

Now, I'm NOT saying that all this will happen to everyone who
doesn't renew their STC membership. :-)

But anyone want to guess what value I see in the organization?

'And do you mean to say that you've built up this important business
and amassed a fortune of thirty thousand pounds without being able
to read or write? Good God, man, what would you be now if you had
been able to?'

"'I can tell you that, sir,' said Mr. Foreman, a little smile on his
still aristocratic features. 'I'd be verger of St. Peter's, Neville
Square.'"

- Somerset Maugham, "The Verger"
