I was chatting with Rick Walker, who does the noble job of maintaining
this list so well, and came up with an idea for something useful we
should have stored in the archives of our group. I would like to assemble
the addresses of all the CP societies for easy access. The information
I would like to have is the following....
Organization Name:
Organization Address:
Subscription rates:
Publication name, related benefits:
Meetings:
Quick profile:
Date revised:
So for example, the three CP bodies I belong to would be described as...

Subscription: $15 U.S.A./$20 Foreign
Membership Benefits: Carnivorous Plant Newsletter (quarterly), seedbank.

The revision date will just be useful since some of these associations
disappear after a while. So, send me all the addresses etc. you have for
various societies. I have the Bay Area CP one, but that's it. Don't assume
anyone else is going to do it---they're assuming you'll send me info....
If I just get an address for a society, I'll send to them directly for
info, but it would be faster if you had it.
