I propose then, to bow deeply to Susan's and apparently the majority of 
Member's habits and logic, that the Bylaws be changed to call the Annual 
Convention,  "The National".  Every reference thereafter, either in speech or 
in writing to that convention must be changed to the words, "The National".

I can see it now:  Wally Brooks RPT, Director of the 2005 PTG National in 
Atlantic City, NJ.  No room for any classes on "how to tune a piano out of 
tune" but 10 classes on player pianos.
