Of  course you have to actually be a member to vote! The rest of you will
have  to sit back and see what happens. The future of CORSA will be in  your
hands.
 
Actually, the future of Corsa will ONLY be in the hands of folks who  can 
and do vote - Not those who sit back and see what happens. And (depending on  
the measure - if any - that comes to a vote) I hope that people vote their  
conscience - seriously. If the Board determines that a compromise 100% 
measure,  essentially, taxing the non-Corsa members in the local clubs slightly 
to  pay for their insurance usage is the method that must be incorporated fo
r Corsa,  as an international organization, to survive, and it passes a 
Corsa membership  vote, then I hope that everyone will help to implement it.  If 
they disagree with it, I hope they will implement it anyway. If they  (both 
individuals and clubs) choose not to go along, they will have the  right to 
go on alone, but not as part of Corsa. 
 
There are many people who are Corvair enthusiasts, know about Corsa -  both 
National and local chapters - and choose not to participate in the  
organized Corvair hobby. It is just not for them! They have the right to do  that. 
They can buy Corvair parts, they can buy Corvair books. They can show  their 
cars at regular car shows. They just cannot be part of Corsa, because  
Corsa provides support, and, in order to survive, will have to demand  support. 
If you don't want to support what Corsa needs to survive,  just walk away. 
Remember, though, it won't be Corsa walking away from  you, it would be you 
walking away from Corsa - and be honest about  it!
