    Hmmmm, better be careful calling it the "National", hmmmmmm.

    Well, I don't know why a good majority of the rest of the Guild
    calls it the "National", but I, at least, call it the National
    to differentiate it from the various Regionals. It's no use
    calling the National the Annual, since all the Regionals are
    Annuals as well. As for the implied but missing "Convention",
    what other National occurrence are members of the PTG likely
    to be talking about, when asking each other if they are going
    to attend something next year?

    Also, of course, we could agree to call it the National because
    of the large numbers of people from various Nations attending it ...



  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.
