[pct-l] PCTA rating....HOW TO MAKE IT BETTER

[Reinhold Metzger]

Mark,
You are a genius.......... you are hired.
Paying folks to sign up and taxing people who do not use the 
trail....that is brilliant.
The PCTA member ship will become so huge that we will be a political 
force to be
  reckoned with, which will put pressure on the government to increase 
funding to
maintain and improve the trail
